The Role Of Communication Base Stations In 5g Networks
The communication base stations in 5G networks contribute to the overall network capacity. By employing beamforming and Massive MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) techniques, these
5G networks divide coverage areas into smaller zones called cells, enabling devices to connect to local base stations via radio. Each station connects to the broader telephone network and the Internet through high-speed optical fiber or wireless backhaul.
In 5G, base stations are known as gNB, where the “g” stands for next Generation. The Mobile Core is a bundle of functionality (conventionally packaged as one or more devices) that serves several purposes. Provides Internet (IP) connectivity for both data and voice services. Ensures this connectivity fulfills the promised QoS requirements.
5G Base Stations: Compared to 4G base stations, 5G brings higher data throughput and power density, significantly increasing heat generation. Therefore, the performance requirements for thermal materials are much higher. ● Small/Micro Base Stations: These base stations are compact, with limited space, making thermal design more challenging.
Dual connectivity allows carriers to use existing 4G signals for stability while adding 5G for extra speed. In other words, the older 4G network serves as a stable foundation, while 5G provides the super-fast data on top. This is called Non-Standalone 5G.
