Communications solutions and case studies
Case study: 5G indoor
small-cell base station
The demand for mobile data, video and music streaming has increased wireless network demand exponentially, and 5G networks are expected to provide the necessary increased network capacity. The higher bandwidth required of 5G connections limits the range of base stations, necessitating a higher density of antennas, especially in buildings where radio signals have limited penetration. The key goals for this indoor base station were:
Size and weight objectives were met by using BCM bus converter modules and ZVS Buck regulators, both utilizing high switching frequencies for a very power dense solution. Further space savings were achieved as Vicor’s proprietary Sine-Amplitude Converter topology increased efficiency, reducing cooling requirements even at high ambient temperatures. Key benefits were:
Vicor power modules provide high power density and high efficiency
A half-chip BCM Bus Converter (K=1/4) measuring just 22 x 16.5 x 6.7mm was used to provide the isolated 12V rail. A ZVS Buck regulator provided the regulated 5V rail to the processor and a ZVS Buck-Boost regulator provided the precisely regulated 12V rail to drive the RF power amplifier stage. Both regulators measure a compact 14 x 10 x 2.6mm. To analyze this power chain, go to Vicor Whiteboard online tool.
