The denseness and dispersion of 5G base stations make the distance between base station energy storage and power users closer. When the user's load loses power, the relevant energy storage can be quickly controlled to participate in the power supply of the lost load.
During main power failures, the energy storage device provides emergency power for the communication equipment. A set of 5G base station main communication equipment is generally composed of a baseband BBU unit and multiple RF AAU units. Equation 1 serves as the base station load model:
Firstly, in terms of energy equipment, the electrical component characteristics of the 5 G base station's constituent units are modeled, including air conditioning loads, power supply systems, and energy storage systems.
The massive growth of 5G base stations in the current power grid will not only increase power consumption, but also bring considerable energy storage resources. However, there are few studies on the feasibility of 5G base station energy storage participating in the emergency restoration of the power grid.
With the rapid development of 5G base station construction, significant energy storage is installed to ensure stable communication. However, these storage resources often remain idle,
