Outdoor base station construction

What is a base station in construction?

In construction, a base station is a receiver placed at a known point on a jobsite that tracks the same satellites as an RTK rover, and provides a real-time differential correction message stream through radio to the rover, to obtain centimeter level positions on a continuous real-time basis.

What are the properties of a base station?

Here are some essential properties: Capacity: Capacity of a base station is its capability to handle a given number of simultaneous connections or users. Coverage Area: The coverage area is a base station is that geographical area within which mobile devices can maintain a stable connection with the base station.

How does a base station work?

It usually connects the device to other networks or devices through a dedicated high bandwidth wire of fiber optic connection. Base stations typically have a transceiver, capable of sending and receiving wireless signals; Otherwise if they only send the trailer it will be considered a transmitter or broadcast point only.

What are the components of a base station?

Power Supply: The power source provides the electrical energy to base station elements. It often features auxiliary power supply mechanisms that guarantee operation in case of lost or interrupted electricity, during blackouts. Baseband Processor: The baseband processor is responsible for the processing of the digital signals.

How does a base station RF work?

The base station's RF circuitry is housed in a small outdoor module known as a remote radio head (RRH) or remote radio unit (RRU). RRH performs all RF functions such as transmit and receive functionality, filtering and amplification. It also has analog-to-digital or digital to analog and digital upconverters.

Why do we need a base station?

Technological advancements: The New technologies result in evolved base stations that support upgrades and enhancements such as 4G, 5G and beyond, its providing faster speeds with better bandwidth. Emergency services: They provide access to emergency services, so that in case of emergency, people can call through their mobile phones.
