These 5G base stations consume about three times the power of the 4G stations. The main reason for this spike in power consumption is the addition of massive MIMO and beamforming, increasing bandwidth for data and resulting in better coverage. . A mobile communication base station is the radio facility that covers a specific area and enables data transmission between mobile phones and the core network. Across 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G networks, the typical connection path is:Mobile Phone → Base. . However, there is still a need to understand the power consumption behavior of state-of-the-art base station architectures, such as multi-carrier active antenna units (AAUs), as well as the impact of different network parameters. Using both site-level measurements and aggregated multi-eNB data collected over a typical workweek, the study analyses traffic trends, PRB utilization. .
