What Are The Challenges Of 5G Base Station Construction?

The progress of science and technology, 5 G era is coming, in 2019 the first year will be a 5 G, this year will be a transition period, we from understanding to now know the news of 5G base station is under construction, in the 35 km from the tiananmen square, explored the way of unmanned test vehicle will also be in the experiment, despite the appearance looks not much change, but the experimental vehicles have been adopted by the 5 G technology that attracts the most attention.

At present, various industries have released their own 5G products and solutions for 5G commercial use, but compared with the enthusiasm of unmanned driving and communication equipment industry, the progress of operators as the construction of 5G network is slow.Many challenges faced by the 5G base station itself, which is the core of 5G network, are also the important reasons why the three operators fail to fully release the deployment.Hequan Wu, an academician at the Chinese academy of engineering, estimates that 5G will require four to five times as many base stations as 4G. The increase of base station demand, on the one hand, means that operators need to pay more procurement costs to communication equipment vendors and need more fiber optic fusion machines; on the other hand, it also means that operators need to pay higher operating costs after the completion of base station. And carriers need to find new application scenarios.

Compared with 4G network, various design indexes and performance of 5G communication system have been greatly improved. The single-station processing capacity of 5G base station equipment is more than ten times higher than that of 4G base station, which naturally increases the construction difficulty of 5G base station.Good project requires good technical support and good tools. Tumtec fusion splicers  has all kinds of products, with long distance trunk six-motor core alignment V9+ series, four motor core alignment 83A, FTTH special 18S/H . Four protection performance (moisture-proof, water-proof, freeze-proof, shock-proof), superior configuration, to provide hard technical support for application scenarios.

The latest data show that China tower has cooperated with operators to build more than 10,000 5G trial stations nationwide. According to Hequan Wu, academician of the Chinese academy of project, China tower has reserved more than 10 million level of site resources, as well as its own stock of more than 1.96 million site resources, to support 5G low-cost rapid network deployment.

In fact, the co-construction and sharing of 5G base station facilities, including the tower, has become an inevitable trend to accelerate 5G networking. A horizontal comparison of the United States, South Korea and Japan in the first tier of 5G:

In the United States, due to the extremely high cost of acquiring base station sites and leasing towers, a large number of Shared resources such as street lamps and telegraph poles have emerged in the 4G era. According to media reports, thousands of new 5G base stations built in the United States are basically installed in public infrastructure such as street lamps and telegraph poles.

Due to limited urban space, SK, KT and LG U+ will jointly build and share 5G networks to speed up 5G deployment, effectively use resources and reduce redundant investment, the ministry of science, technology and communications said in an April 2018 statement.

With the gradual deployment of 5G network, operators' exploration of 5G business model is also in urgent need of switching from simple data traffic service to diversified application scenarios such as low delay, high reliability and large connection.nistry of science, technology and communications said in an April 2018 statement.

In Japan, 5G has accumulated various sharing stations before. In order to save the investment of 5G construction to the maximum extent, Tokyo electric power company (TEPCO) proposed to open the resources of electric poles and towers to operators, while NTT proposed to share 5G base stations with KDDI and softbank, two Japanese telecom operators.

With the gradual deployment of 5G network, operators' exploration of 5G business model is also in urgent need of switching from simple data traffic service to diversified application scenarios such as low delay, high reliability and large connection.
