Benefits after the completion of the communication base station battery energy storage system project

To maximize overall benefits for the investors and operators of base station energy storage, we proposed a bi-level optimization model for the operation of the energy storage, and the planning of 5G base stations considering the sleep mechanism.

Reference proposed a refined configuration scheme for energy storage in a 5G base station, that is, in areas with good electricity supply, where the backup battery configuration could be reduced.

2) The optimized configuration results of the three types of energy storage batteries showed that since the current tiered-use of lithium batteries for communication base station backup power was not sufficiently mature, a brand- new lithium battery with a longer cycle life and lighter weight was more suitable for the 5G base station.

The traditional configuration method of a base station battery comprehensively considers the importance of the 5G base station, reliability of mains, geographical location, long-term development, battery life, and other factors .

The communication coverage of a base station is closely related to transmitting power, frequency, and other factors. When the frequency of a base station increases and the transmitting power decreases, its coverage decreases.

The backup battery of a 5G base station must ensure continuous power supply to it, in the case of a power failure. As the number of 5G base stations, and their power consumption increase significantly compared with that of 4G base stations, the demand for backup batteries increases simultaneously.
