Quickly understand the transmission tower installed on the communication base station, the first shared tower of the national grid

"No. 12 shared iron tower, the power line is in good condition, and the communication base station is not disturbed." On May 4, on the 12th tower of the 110 kilovolt car line 2 in Yichang City, Hubei Province, workers were installed on the transmission tower. After the 5G test base station of the mobile communication carrier, the remote video monitoring function of the tower was realized, and the power and communication realized a shared win-win situation.

5G mobile communication technology is the commanding height of a new round of information technology revolution, and the construction of 5G, the first to carry out large-scale communication base station construction. According to the planning of Hubei 5G base station, by 2023, the province will build 100,000 new base stations. At present, Hubei Power Grid has a total of 47,000 kilometers of 110 kV and above transmission lines and 120,000 base towers. If it can be shared, it will save a lot of money. Tower infrastructure investment.

In April 2018, State Grid Corporation and China Tower Co., Ltd. reached a strategic cooperation in sharing towers, and piloted construction in four provinces including Hubei. State Grid Hubei Power fully supports the pilot construction, organizes the work of strengthening the strength of the tower tower, adding communication equipment to the operation and maintenance of power facilities, and researching and repairing work, and gradually forms a standardized business process.

"The communication single-group antenna attached to the tower weighs 50 kilograms and has reached the safety standard after being checked." Zhang Lei, head of the engineering department of China Railway Tower Hubei Company, said that the tower is at the 110 kilovolt car two-line 12 power tower. Three sets of communication devices are installed on the communication device, and the communication device is installed at a position 15 meters away from the lower layer. This sharing has saved more than 100 square meters of national land resources. With the addition of more shared towers, it can not only effectively solve the problem of weak wireless signal coverage and difficult site selection in some areas of communication infrastructure construction, but also save the investment in single-point construction of communication towers and reduce the rental cost of operators' towers. After installing the communication base station, the tower company can promote the construction of power information. The power grid company can promote the construction of power wireless private network, and provide support for distribution network automation, remote meter reading, video transmission, mobile office, and smart grid remote control. The benefits of operators, operators and towers have greatly improved the utilization rate of state-owned assets.

It is understood that from 2018 to 2023, the 5G communication base station will gradually form a scale from the pilot to the stage. Hubei Tower Company expects to use the power tower of about 3000 bases as the shared tower. The average construction cost per base station is 200,000 yuan. With an area of ​​30 square meters, it can directly save construction costs of 600 million yuan and save 90,000 square meters of national land resources.
