Complete Guide to 5G Base Station Construction | Key Steps,
Explore how 5G base stations are built—from site planning and cabinet installation to power systems and cooling solutions. Learn the essential components, technologies, and
To keep the power density per MHz similar to LTE systems, the 100MHz 3.5GHz spectrum will require 5x 80 W, which is not easy to be achieved. 5G trials need to define a realistic output power trade-off between coverage, power consumption, EMF limits, and performance.
According to the principle of mobile communication, the transmission distance and frequency of the signal are inversely proportional when the power ratio of receiving and transmitting is constant. The frequencies of 4G base stations are generally from 2.3GHz to 2.6GHz, and the frequencies of 5G high-frequency base stations are above 28GHz.
With the increase of power density and voltage drops on the power transmission line in macro base, it is recommended to use HVDC system for the 5G network. Requirements to ICT equipment Power Supply Unit (PSU) and supporting facilities. -42V. It means that if the voltage drop is more than 6V, the ICT equipment will be protected.
The radius of coverage area of 5G high-frequency base stations will be less than one-tenth of that of 4G base stations, and the coverage area of 5G high-frequency base stations will be less than one percent of that of 4G base stations. The deployment of macro base stations is difficult and the site resources are not easy to obtain.
