On the revenueThe challenge goes deeper than powering additional cell sites. The architectures ofcellular access are changing dramatically. Customer demand is pushing 5G rolloutswhich, in turn, require more RF equipment. Additional radios, more frequencies andside, we know the effect that network outages have on churn rates. With the vastmajority of cell sites relying on older power grids for primary power, the need forreliable backup power is more important than ever.increasing use of remote radio units, plus an entire small cell layer that still needs tobe built out are pushing outdated power systems to the brink.Welcome to the intersection of now and nextTo keep pace with the changes and, more importantly, to satisfy user expectationsof 24/7 availability, mobile operators need to re-evaluate all aspects of their powerinfrastructure. That means taking stock of where we are from a solution standpoint,where we need to be, and developing a cohesive, future-capable strategy to get usfrom here to there.That’s why CommScope has developed this ebook, to help keep you out in front.Here, you’ll find the “what,” “why” and “how” to help guide your power decisionsas you navigate what’s next. We’ve broken it down into easy-to-digest chapters andsections that walk you through the key issues of powering your macro and small cellnetworks. Along the way, we added the CommScope innovations designed to help yourealize the more efficient, future-ready power solutions needed to keep you and yournetworks moving forward.Chapter 1: Introduction3

Elements of powerTo understand how wireless communication networksare powered, you need to begin with the basics—which really haven’t changed all that much sinceThomas Edison lit up Manhattan’s Financial District(NYC) on September 4, 1882. Sure, we’ve seen a lotof refinements, improvements and safety measuressince then, but the principles of power generation anddistribution still apply.Chapter 2: Elements of powerThomas Edison’s Pearl Street Station was the first commercial central powerplant in the United States. It was located in the Financial District of Manhattan(New York City). Fired by coal and powered by six dynamos, it came on lineSeptember 4, 1882 and served an initial load of 400 lamps at 82 customers.4

What about renewables?The international energy agency (IEA) in its latest global energy projection, theWorld Energy Outlook 2018 (WEO2018), has reported that global energy demand isexpected to grow by about 27 percent, or 3,743 million tons oil equivalent worldwidefrom 2017 to 2040.1 At the same time, the annual energy consumption by the mobileindustry has increased from 219 TWh in 2007 to 519 TWh in 2019, and it is speculatedthat the demand will rise at a yearly rate of 10 percent.2 Consequently, the electricitybill of telecom networks globally amounts to above US 10 billion per year.3The importance of estimating future energy requirements and their consequentcarbon emissions cannot be ignored when developing an effective energy policyCurrent statusFuture targetsNetwork operatorRenewable energyutilization (%)Reduction inemissions (%)Renewable energyutilization (%)Reduction inemissions (%)Target yearBaseline yearDeutsche Telecom52%2%100%90%2021 1 , 2030 ble40% 4Not stated50%20302017T-Mobile100%9%Already 100%Not statedN/aN/aVerizonN/a28% 550%50%20252016Virgin Media100%22%Already 100%Not stated20202014Vodafone15%3%Not stated50%202520173Source: Sustainability Journal; 9 Feb. 2021for the future.4 And, in fact, the industry is gradually moving toward the use ofrenewable sources such as wind, water and solar power. The table on the rightshows where the world’s major wireless providers are in their efforts to transition togreener energy and reduce their carbon footprints.To accommodate the shift toward renewables, wireless infrastructure partners havebegun to introduce solutions that enable service providers to integrate alternativeenergy sources into their overall power infrastructure. One such solution is a moreflexible rectifier, discussed in the next chapter.1World Energy Outlook 2018, Aug. 20202Sustainable power supply solutions for off-grid base stations, Energies, Sep. 20153Towards Energy Efficient Load Balancing for Sustainable Green WirelessNetworks Under Optimal Power Supply; IEEE Access, vol. 8, 20204Green energy solutions taking shapeTo meet their ambitious energy greenpeak shaving, MNOs run their macroartificial intelligence to power RRUs upgoals, the world’s cellular networksites via the grid when prices are lowand down based on traffic.

Rectifiers: the ac-dc interfaceac power sourcing flexibilityNearly all modern communication networks (wired and wireless) run on directcurrent (dc) electricity. But, because homes and offices are powered by alternatingcurrent (ac), the electric grid is ac. Rectifiers are used to convert an ac power feed todc. In both macro sites and small cells, the rectifiers’ output is connected to the radioand its transmission equipment—the “load” for the current—as well as the backupWith ever-increasing utility costs, the ability to combine power from renewable sources with utility power is anotheraspect of power flexibility. To address this, some rectifiers can accept ac power from attached solar panels or windturbines just as easily as they can draw it from the utility’s transmission lines.Choosing the right rectifierThe first consideration in deciding which rectifier will best suit a given installation is the kind of ac power it will receive.battery equipment.The rectifier provides enough dc voltage level to maintain the charge in the backupbatteries. This level, called “float voltage,” supplies the equipment load as well as atrickle charge to the battery. In the event of an ac power interruption, the rectifiers goSwitchmode rectifiers are the preferred choice for cell and microwave sites since they can support multiple ac inputsand have a broader operating range—from single-phase to three-phase inputs. This flexibility means fewer rectifiers arerequired—saving money, space and maintenance.off-line and the batteries automatically kick in. When external ac power is restored,the rectifiers re-engage and the batteries return to their trickle-charging state.Multiple rectifier modules are usually required to supply power for the base station’sload. Modules are connected in parallel, enabling them to share an equal part ofthe load. This load sharing allows operators to design in a degree of redundancy toguard against individual rectifier module failures.Batteries– dcUtility gridR– terdcout dcA block diagram of a basic telecommunications power systemChapter 2: Elements of powerTomiscloads dcac 10ac 30LOADSdc fuel cellac or dc generatorPower source flexibility lets rectifiers draw from conventional or renewable sources8

Power distributionThe rectifier is merely the first stage in the power system.Once converted, the power must be distributed to themany component loads within the system. As mentionedabove, these loads include core elements like the radio,transmitter and battery backup, but they can also includesecondary systems like lighting, security networks andHVAC systems.

Power safety, maintenanceand managementModern telecommunication power plants are equippedwith electronic monitoring and control systems, generallycalled “controllers.” They keep track of system voltages,currents, temperatures and other key indicators. Theyalso allow operators to make adjustments from a centralmonitoring point—usually on the power plant itself, on thedistribution cabinet or in a rectifier slot.The following are some of the key functions and capabilities that controllers provide:Plant controlThis is useful for maintenance on VRLAin the backup batteries, the controllerthat allow easy disconnection forControl functions are extended frombatteries—equalizing cell voltagecan open additional contacts tomaintenance or replacement.

Powering today’smacro siteHow your macro site is powered has a lot to sayabout how profitable it is. Site architectures arequickly changing, with more active and passive RFcomponents being moved to the top of the tower.This shift is affecting tower loads and creatingadditional congestion at the top. At the same time,user expectations are increasing as everyoneassumes their mobile service will be available24/7, regardless of the weather or problems withthe local power grid.

Power needs move to the topOne of the most significant architectural changes in cell sitedesign has been an explosion in the number of passive andactive RF components at the top of the tower.

Saving space and cost in the shelterWhile relocating the RRH from the base station to the topof the tower saves space inside the shelter, the numberof additional radio units required for today’s advanced5G deployments threatens to outgrow the shelter.Additionally, it compounds the challenge of managing thethermal load inside.An integrated rectifier, dc distribution and controller power systemIn response, infrastructure providers such as CommScopehave developed new, more compact power solutions thatenable operators to save space and cooling costs insidethe shelter.-48 VdcIntegrated power systemssystem contains an integrated dc bus,generally used in cell site applications.To address these space limits,fuses or breakers and cabling tie-downsOnline inverters feature a dc inputCommScope produces integratedto distribute power to the load.and an ac output with an optional acpower systems with several componentsdc-ac invertersstandby line available.Some of the equipment operating atLike dc-dc converters, the input for aa cell site may require ac current fromdc-ac inverter is supplied by the primarybattery backup supplies.
