This paper explores the integration of distributed photovoltaic (PV) systems and energy storage solutions to optimize energy management in 5G base stations. By utilizing IoT characteristics, we propose a dual-layer modeling algorithm that maximizes carbon efficiency and return on investment while ensuring service quality.
However, the widespread deployment of 5G base stations has led to increased energy consumption. Individual 5G base stations require 3–4 times more power than fourth-generation mobile communication technology (4G) base stations, and their deployment density is 4–5 times that of 4G base stations [3, 4].
Model of Base Station Power System The key equipment in 5G base stations are the baseband unit (BBU) and active antenna unit (AAU), both of which are direct current loads. The power of AAU contributes to roughly 80% of the overall communication system power and is highly dependent on the communication volume .
