Abstract :
This paper deals with the aspects that must be considered when a radio base station (RBS) site is driven from a solar power source. The design of a particular RBS site within a cellular network with solar power includes many parameters that are thoroughly discussed. Recommended geographic areas for cellular solar power are presented with physical and economic aspects.
