Technical FAQs 4

What is a base station antenna?

The base station antennas transmit and receive RF (radio frequency) signals, or radio waves, to and from mobile phones near the base station. Without these radio waves, mobile communications would not be possible. Radio waves have been used for communication for more than 100 years. Radio and television broadcasting are well-known examples of this.

What is the impact of base stations?

The impact of the Base Stations comes from the combination of the power consumption of the equipment itself (up to 1500 Watts for a nowadays macro base station) multiplied by the number of deployed sites in a commercial network (e.g. more than 12000 in UK for a single operator).

Do mobile phones need a base station?

Mobile phones and other mobile devices require a network of base stations in order to function. The base station antennas transmit and receive RF (radio frequency) signals, or radio waves, to and from mobile phones near the base station. Without these radio waves, mobile communications would not be possible.

Why do we need more base station antennas?

As the number of mobile devices in a community grows, more base stations are needed. For that reason, more antennas are needed in such crowded locations as shopping malls where there are many mobile phone users. However, the shorter the distance between base station antennas, the lower the output power of each antenna.
