Get Price5G macro base stations may require several new, continuously running, power-hungry components, including microwave or millimeter wave transceivers, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), faster data converters, high-power/low-noise amplifiers and integrated MIMO antennas. 5G requires multiple, multi-element antennas.
Fortunately, in most cases, thermal management techniques are already available to solve heat issues facing 5G communications devices. Base stations, macro cells, micro cells, small cells and other devices are all part of the dynamic cell phone infrastructure.
5G requires multiple, multi-element antennas. Current strategies for thermally managing mmWave antennas include forced air and liquid cooling. Despite being effective in removing the heat, active cooling systems with fans or pumps require the use of electricity and can make the system more complex and hard to maintain.
5G is the 5th generation of mobile networks, a significant evolution of today’s 4G LTE networks. 5G is being designed to meet the exploding growth in data and connectivity needs of today’s modern, highly populated society. It brings three major advances. First, it provides bigger channels to speed up data downloads and uploads.
Much of the 5G spectrum is in extremely high frequency (EHF) or millimeter wave (mmWave) frequencies. Faster millimeter wave frequencies are more susceptible to the environment. They have difficulty passing through walls and windows, so indoor coverage is limited.
