Vodafone<\/a> UK has teamed up with network supplier Ericsson to conduct a new trial in Central London, which demonstrated an impressive 43% reduction in the energy consumption of their 5G<\/a> mobile broadband network (reaching up to 55% at off-peak times). The operator has also re-farmed some of their 900MHz band to boost 4G<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The kit being tested was Ericsson’s latest antenna-integrated radio solution (AIR 3227<\/strong>), which during the trial was deployed on the roof of Vodafone<\/a>’s Speechmark office, in Southwark, Central London. Comparing the performance of the equipment directly to the previous generation of technology, Vodafone<\/a>’s controlled trial saw energy consumption decrease by a daily average of 43%, and as much as 55% at off-peak times.<\/p>\n

Deployment of the new equipment will thus help reduce the operator’s forecasted energy consumption of its future 5G<\/a> network. Vodafone now intends to deploy 1,500 of the new units by April 2022, enabling a more environmentally responsible 5G<\/a> deployment strategy.<\/p>\n

The new radio kit is 51% lighter than the previous generation and its more compact design and improved energy management features should also help to minimise overall site footprint, making the 5G rollout and 4G<\/a> upgrades both quicker and easier (that also means cost savings and every operator likes those).<\/p>\n

Andrea Dona, Chief Network Officer of Vodafone UK, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Our strategy is simple; turn off anything we don\u2019t need, modernise our network where possible, and use the most energy efficient options available without compromising the service we deliver to our customers. The success of this trial allows us to explore new ways we can more effectively manage the energy consumption of our network with our partner Ericsson. There is no silver bullet for managing network energy consumption \u2013 it is about putting sustainability at the heart of every decision and adding up all the small gains to make a material difference.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In addition to this, Vodafone is also undertaking a project to make the best and most efficient use of spectrum and energy resources. As a result, some 10MHz of frequency from the 900MHz<\/strong> spectrum band, which previously provided 3G<\/a> services, has now been re-farmed to support 4G<\/a>. In the future, this spectrum can also be transitioned to support 5G using only a software upgrade.<\/p>\n

At present they’ve only deployed this change across multiple sites in London, but hundreds more will follow. The project to restructure and reallocate spectrum in the 900MHz band will double low band capacity for customers, improving the 4G experience and reliability of the network. The reallocated 4G spectrum will also be complemented by deployment of Massive MIMO<\/strong> antenna, further enhancing mobile broadband speeds.<\/p>\n

Additional capacity has been added to ensure a reliable and consistent 4G experience. Over the last 12 months, Vodafone saw 4G traffic on its network grow by more than 40% year-on-year, a trend which is expected to continue for the coming years. By comparison, 3G<\/a> data usage has declined rapidly, from more than 30% of total traffic in 2016 to less than 4% today.<\/p>\n

However, we note that a dedicated block of the 900MHz band will be retained, at least for now, to support older 2G and 3G<\/a> services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
