Ye G. Research on reducing energy consumption cost of 5G Base Station based on photovoltaic energy storage system. In: 2021 IEEE International Conference on Computer Science, Electronic Information Engineering and Intelligent Control Technology (CEI), Fuzhou, China, 2021. p. 480-484.
However, due to the utilization of massive antennas and higher frequency bands, the energy consumption of 5G base stations (BSs) is much higher than that of 4G BSs, which incurs huge operation costs and significantly increases carbon emissions under traditional power supply mode .
Setting up a 5G base station is expensive, with costs ranging from $100,000 to $200,000 per site. This price includes hardware, installation, site rental, and maintenance. Urban areas often have higher costs due to land prices and infrastructure challenges.
1. Introduction 5G base station (BS), as an important electrical load, has been growing rapidly in the number and density to cope with the exponential growth of mobile data traffic . It is predicted that by 2025, there will be about 13.1 million BSs in the world, and the BS energy consumption will reach 200 billion kWh .
For energy efficiency in 5G cellular networks, researchers have been studying at the sleeping strategy of base stations. In this regard, this study models a 5G BS as an (M^ { [X]}/G/1)
