At the same time, a large number of 5G base stations (BSs) are connected to distribution networks , which usually involve high power consumption and are equipped with backup energy storage, , giving it significant demand response potential.
The operational constraints of 5G communication base stations studied in this paper mainly include the energy consumption characteristics of the base stations themselves, the communication characteristics, and the operational constraints of their internal energy storage batteries.
Overall, 5G communication base stations’ energy consumption comprises static and dynamic power consumption . Among them, static power consumption pertains to the reduction in energy required in 5G communication base stations that remains constant regardless of service load or output transmission power.
According to the mobile telephone network (MTN), which is a multinational mobile telecommunications company, report (Walker, 2020), the dense layer of small cell and more antennas requirements will cause energy costs to grow because of up to twice or more power consumption of a 5G base station than the power of a 4G base station.
Conclusions In this paper, an operation model of 5G BSs considering its communication load migration and energy storage dynamic backup is first presented, and then a coordinated optimization model of distribution and 5G communication networks is established to fully explore the operation flexibility of 5G BSs.
5G BSs can simultaneously participate in multiple demand response applications, such as power peak balancing, congestion management, frequency modulation, renewable energy accommodation, etc., by regulating their power consumption and battery storage charging/discharging behaviors.
