NTT DOCOMO: Start of Demonstration Experiment for Base Station Power Rescue System Using Electric Vehicles
This experiment focuses on a base station power recovery system utilizing electric vehicles (EVs).
- This experiment focuses on a base station power recovery system utilizing electric vehicles (EVs).
- The system for this experiment comprises DOCOMO's Energy Management System (EMS) platform for monitoring and controlling base station power, NTT's AI-based vehicle dispatch planning created using deep reinforcement learning(1), and real-time EV data (including location, stored power, and driving data) collected by NCS.
- Furthermore, NTT is a member of the EV100 initiative(2), and this demonstration experiment is conducted as part of the initiative's efforts.
- During power outages, base stations currently provide communication services using backup batteries for a limited time and deploy generators for extended outages.
