Foreword
This final draft ETSI Standard (ES) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Environmental Engineering (EE),
and is now submitted for the ETSI standards Membership Approval Procedure.
The present document is part 1 of a multi-part deliverable covering the metrics and measurement method for energy
efficiency of wireless access network equipment, as identified below:
Part 1: "Power Consumption - Static Measurement Method";
Part 2: "Energy Efficiency - dynamic measurement method".
Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and
"cannot" are to be interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of
provisions).
"must" and "must not" are NOT allowed in ETSI deliverables except when used in direct citation.
Introduction
Energy efficiency is one of the critical factors of the modern telecommunication systems. The energy consumption of
the access network is the dominating part of the wireless telecom network energy consumption. Therefore the core
network and the service network are not considered in the present document. In the radio access network, the energy
consumption of the Base Station is dominating (depending on technology often also referred to as BTS, NodeB,
eNodeB, etc. and in the present document denoted as BS). The energy consumption of Radio Network Control nodes
(RNC or BSC) are covered in ETSI ES 201 554 [5].
The standard ETSI ES 202 706 defines methods to analyse the power consumption and energy efficiency of base
stations in static mode and dynamic mode respectively.
The present document defines the static measurement method for the evaluation of base station power and energy
consumption:
• Average power consumption of BS equipment under static test conditions: the BS average power consumption
is based on measured BS power consumption data under static condition when the BS is loaded artificially in a
lab for three different loads, low, medium and busy hour under given reference configuration.
• Daily average energy consumption.
ETSI ES 202 706-2 [i.8] defines energy efficiency measurement of the base station.

6 Final draft ETSI ES 202 706-1 V1.5.0 (2016-10)
1 Scope
The present document version covers the following radio access technologies:
• GSM.
• WCDMA.
• LTE.
TM
(informative only).
• WiMAX
The methodology described in the present document is to measure base station static power consumption. Within the
present document it is referred to as static measurements.
The results based on "static" measurements of the BS power consumption provide a power and energy consumption
figure for BS under static load.
Energy consumption of terminal (end-user) equipment is outside the scope of the present document.
The scope of the present document is not to define target values for the power consumption.
The results should only be used to assess and compare the power and energy consumption of base stations.
Wide Area Base Stations and Medium Range Base Stations are covered in the present document [12].

Foreword
This ETSI Standard (ES) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Environmental Engineering (EE).
The present document is part 1 of a multi-part deliverable covering the metrics and measurement method for energy
efficiency of wireless access network equipment, as identified below:
Part 1: "Power Consumption - Static Measurement Method";
Part 2: "Energy Efficiency - dynamic measurement method".

Introduction
Energy efficiency is one of the critical factors of the modern telecommunication systems. The energy consumption of
the access network is the dominating part of the wireless telecom network energy consumption. Therefore the core
network and the service network are not considered in the present document. In the radio access network, the energy
consumption of the Base Station is dominating (depending on technology often also referred to as BTS, NodeB,
eNodeB, etc. and in the present document denoted as BS). The energy consumption of Radio Network Control nodes
(RNC or BSC) are covered in ETSI ES 201 554 [5].
The standard ETSI ES 202 706 defines methods to analyse the power consumption and energy efficiency of base
stations in static mode and dynamic mode respectively.
The present document defines the static measurement method for the evaluation of base station power and energy
consumption:
• Average power consumption of BS equipment under static test conditions: the BS average power consumption
is based on measured BS power consumption data under static condition when the BS is loaded artificially in a
lab for three different loads, low, medium and busy hour under given reference configuration.
• Daily average energy consumption.
ETSI ES 202 706-2 [i.8] defines energy efficiency measurement of the base station.

The present document version covers the following radio access technologies:
• GSM.

TM
(informative only).
• WiMAX
The methodology described in the present document is to measure base station static power consumption. Within the
present document it is referred to as static measurements.
The results based on "static" measurements of the BS power consumption provide a power and energy consumption
figure for BS under static load.
Energy consumption of terminal (end-user) equipment is outside the scope of the present document.
The scope of the present document is not to define target values for the power consumption.
The results should only be used to assess and compare the power and energy consumption of base stations.
Wide Area Base Stations and Medium Range Base Stations are covered in the present document [12].

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
Base Station (BS): radio access network component which serves one or more radio cells and interfaces the user
terminal (through air interface) and a wireless network infrastructure
BS test control unit: unit which can be used to control and manage BS locally in a lab
busy hour: period during which occurs the maximum total load in a given 24-hour period
busy hour load: in static measurement it is the highest measurement level of radio resource configuration and in
dynamic measurement is the highest activity level
distributed BS: BS architecture which contains remote radio heads (i.e. RRH) close to antenna element and a central
element connecting BS to network infrastructure
efficiency: relation between the useful output (telecom service, etc.) and energy consumption
energy consumption: integral of power consumption over time
full load: operating mode including all radio resources and 100 % traffic conditions
integrated BS: BS architecture in which all BS elements are located close to each other; for example in one single
cabinet
NOTE: The integrated BS architecture may include Tower Mount Amplifier (TMA) close to antenna.
low load: in static measurement it is the lowest measurement level of radio resource configuration and in dynamic
measurement is the lowest activity level
medium load: in static measurement it is the medium measurement level of radio resource configuration and in
dynamic measurement is the medium activity level
medium range BS: Base Station that is characterized by a rated output power (PRAT) above 24 dBm and less than or
equal to 38 dBm according to ETSI TS 136 104 [12] and ETSI TS 125 104 [2]
multi-band base station: configuration which allows the simultaneous operation on at least two different frequency
bands
power saving feature: software/hardware feature in a BS which contributes to decrease power consumption
rated output power: rated output power of the base station is the mean power level per carrier for BS operating in
single carrier, multi-carrier, or carrier aggregation configurations that the manufacturer has declared to be available at
the antenna connector during the transmitter ON period according to ETSI TS 136 104 [12] and ETSI TS 125 104 [2]
site correction factor: scaling factor to scale the BS equipment power consumption for reference site configuration
taking into account different power supply solutions, different cooling solutions and power supply losses
static measurement: power consumption measurement performed with different radio resource configurations with
pre-defined and fixed load levels
wide area BS: Base Station that is characterized by a rated output power (PRAT) greater than 38 dBm according to
ETSI TS 136 104 [12] and ETSI TS 125 104 [2]
