4 FAQs about [Columbia Communications Green Base Station]

Can a 5G base station promote green development of mobile communication facilities?

However, a significant reduction of ca. 42.8% can be achieved by optimizing the power structure and base station layout strategy and reducing equipment power consumption. Overall, this study provides a clear approach to assess the environmental impact of the 5G base station and will promote the green development of mobile communication facilities.

What is the system boundary of 5G base station?

The system boundary of the CO 2 of 5G base station The civil construction of 5G base stations is typically carried out using the existing infrastructure of 4G base stations, resulting in less material input during the construction phase. The primary focus on carbon emission generation is during the use phase due to power consumption.

How much carbon does a 5G base station produce?

Previous research has estimated that a single 5G base station will produce approximately 30.2 ~ 33.5 tCO 2 eq throughout its life cycle (Ding et al., 2022; Guo et al., 2022a). Consequently, the carbon emissions from 5G base stations in China in 2021 amounted to approximately 49.2 MtCO 2 eq.

How much power does a micro base station use?

The power consumption of a single macro base station is approximately 5 kW, whereas a Pico Cell requires only about 10 W (Bolla et al., 2012; Deruyck et al., 2014; Hu & Yi, 2014). Deploying multiple micro base stations to cover the blind spots of a macro base station will reduce power consumption during operation, thereby reducing carbon emissions.
