Modelling of A Power Infrastructure Resource Management In A Communication Network

The major load demand at Radio Base Station’s (RBS) are due to data traffic. RBS’s contains variable power sources and energy storage systems that are controlled via a power controller unit in order to meet load demand. Such power resources are AC-grid, batteries, generator and photovoltaic cells etc. Using a certain power source entails a distinct cost and emission connected. This paper investigates the influence that the power controller logic has on cost and emission by modelling the infrastructure as a hybrid automaton.
