Are green cellular base stations sustainable?

This study presents an overview of sustainable and green cellular base stations (BSs), which account for most of the energy consumed in cellular networks. We review the architecture of the BS and the power consumption model, and then summarize the trends in green cellular network research over the past decade.

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.

Can macro base stations be deployed on a large scale?

As 5G operates at a higher frequency than 4G, its coverage capability is lower and the signal penetration is poor, causing significant signal attenuation. Thus, deploying macro base stations on a large scale is not feasible for 5G networks.

Can DG power a GSM cellular network in Greece?

Kaldellis et al. [ 134] designed a solar-powered system with DG as a backup power source for a GSM cellular network in Greece. The proposed system can effectively address the lack of energy in remote BSs in Greece given its high reliability and low maintenance requirements in considering the tilt angle of optimum PV panels.
