Base Stations
Power consumption: Thus, permanent power supply is needed for the operation of base stations; energy consumption required to operate these
Base stations represent the main contributor to the energy consumption of a mobile cellular network. Since traffic load in mobile networks significantly varies during a working or weekend day, it is important to quantify the influence of these variations on the base station power consumption.
The real data in terms of the power consumption and traffic load have been obtained from continuous measurements performed on a fully operated base station site. Measurements show the existence of a direct relationship between base station traffic load and power consumption.
The largest energy consumer in the BS is the power amplifier, which has a share of around 65% of the total energy consumption [ 7 ]. Of the other base station elements, significant energy consumers are: air conditioning (17.5%), digital signal processing (10%) and AC/DC conversion elements (7.5%) [ 8 ].
In this paper we developed such power models for macro and micro base stations relying on data sheets of several GSM and UMTS base stations with focus on component level, e.g., power amplifier and cooling equipment. In a first application of the model a traditional macro cell deployment and a heterogeneous deployment are compared.
Power consumption model of GSM 900 sector 2 BS rack (Monday, 18/07). Generally, there is no major difference between models presenting power consumption of one day and the total power consumption for all five days of measurements.
The impact of the Base Stations comes from the combination of the power consumption of the equipment itself (up to 1500 Watts for a nowadays macro base station) multiplied by the number of deployed sites in a commercial network (e.g. more than 12000 in UK for a single operator).
