What causes a communication base station to fail?
Power interruption is a significant contributor to communication base station functional failure. Communication systems closely rely on power systems, and power outages can result in widespread station interruptions. In the case of the earthquake in Changning County, 90% of disrupted base stations experienced power interruptions as the cause .
Can a base station predict a power outage?
Though each single power outage of one given base station is truly hard to predict precisely, the statistical long-term power outage trends (e.g., in every year) can have a very similar pattern (e.g., a base station built in cold area may suffer from several power outages due to the heavy snow every year).
Is there a mismatch between backup batteries and power outages?
Our real trace-driven data analysis clearly reveals that in the battery allocation strategy currently used in practice, there exists a mismatch between the supporting ability of backup batteries and the power outage situations in each base sta-tion. The mismatch can lead to serious problems in base sta-tions.
How many base stations in China have a power outage?
In this paper, we closely examine the power outage events and the backup battery activities from a 1.5-year dataset of a branch of a major cellular service provider in China, including 4,206 base stations and more than 1.5 bil-lion records on base stations and batteries.
What causes base station functional failure?
In Fig. 6, the causes of base station functional failure (T) are identified: power interruption (I 1), damage to communication room (I 2) (equipment included), and damage to communication towers (I 3).
Why do cellular communication base stations need a battery alloc?
Current cellular communication base stations are facing serious problems due to the mismatch between the power outage situations and the backup battery supporting abili-ties. In this paper, we proposed BatAlloc, a battery alloca-tion framework to address this issue.
