Our research addresses the critical intersection of communication and power systems in the era of advanced information technologies. We highlight the strategic importance of communication base
SCIENCE FOR SOCIETY As China rapidly expands its digital infrastructure, the energy consumed by commu-nication base stations has grown dramatically. Traditionally powered by coal-dominated grid
Abstract—5G is a high-bandwidth low-latency communication technology that requires deploying new cellular base stations. The environmental cost of deploying a 5G cellular network remains unknown.
With the relentless global expansion of 5G networks and the increasing demand for data, communication base stations face unprecedented challenges in ensuring uninterrupted power supply and managing
These outcomes demonstrate that upgrading to low-carbon base stations not only ensures economic feasibility but also delivers significant environmental and public health benefits,
To further explore the energy-saving potential of 5 G base stations, this paper proposes an energy-saving operation model for 5 G base stations that incorporates communication caching and
In today''s 5G era, the energy efficiency (EE) of cellular base stations is crucial for sustainable communication. Recognizing this, Mobile Network Operators are actively prioritizing EE for both
1. Expansion is difficult Compared with 4G, 5G requires more dense base stations, which puts forward higher requirements for network planning, base station site selection, However, a significant
