Currently, researchers are looking to lithium battery technology to boost battery life and optimize 5G equipment for user expectations. However, the verdict is mixed when it comes to the utility of lithium batteries in a 5G world. In theory, 5G smartphones will be less taxed than current smartphones.
5G Base Stations: Compared to 4G base stations, 5G brings higher data throughput and power density, significantly increasing heat generation. Therefore, the performance requirements for thermal materials are much higher. ● Small/Micro Base Stations: These base stations are compact, with limited space, making thermal design more challenging.
This is because a 5G network with local 5G base stations will dramatically increase computation speeds and enable the transfer of the bulk of computation from your smartphone to the cloud. This means less battery usage for daily tasks and longer life for your battery. Or does it? A competing theory focuses on the 5G phones themselves.
5G networks divide coverage areas into smaller zones called cells, enabling devices to connect to local base stations via radio. Each station connects to the broader telephone network and the Internet through high-speed optical fiber or wireless backhaul.
