Base stations are the core of mobile communication, and with the rise of 5G, thermal and energy challenges are increasing. This article explains the definition, structure, types, and principles of base stations, while highlighting the critical role of thermal interface materials in base station heat management for reliable and efficient networks.
Among these, base stations are some of the most energy-intensive, especially in mobile networks. Several factors influence power demand across telecom infrastructure. Network traffic levels vary throughout the day and across locations, requiring dynamic power provisioning.
To ensure the stable operation of a base station, an efficient thermal management system is essential. This system usually includes: ● Heatsinks: The core component of the cooling system, which dissipates heat by increasing surface area. ● Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs): This is a critical part of thermal management.
The base station is an indispensable piece of infrastructure in the mobile communication network, silently supporting every phone call, message, and network connection we make daily.
With the maturity and large-scale deployment of 5G technology, the proportion of energy consumption of base stations in the smart grid is increasing, and there is an urgent need to reduce the operating
