Evaluación y modernización de estaciones base de antenas para la implementación de tecnologías móviles 4G y 5G en Colombia

Abstract

This study addresses the evaluation and modernization of base stations for the implementation of 4G and 5G mobile technologies in Colombia, aiming to coordinate the identification and planning of the upgrade of critical devices such as antennas, transmission radios, and controller modules. To achieve this, audits of planning documents and antenna connections were conducted, along with detailed monitoring of field implementations. The methodology included reviewing planning documents, verifying technical configurations, and updating information in internal systems. Additionally, digital tools and specialized platforms were used for managing telecommunications infrastructure. Among the results obtained, a total of 315 planning audits, 137 antenna connection audits, and the monitoring of 264 base station implementations were conducted. These efforts optimized document management, reduced errors in network implementation, and improved the availability of information for technical teams. The conclusions highlight the importance of efficient management in the modernization of base stations, demonstrating a positive impact on the planning, operation, and maintenance of mobile networks. This study contributes to strengthening Colombia's telecommunications infrastructure by optimizing the transition processes to new technologies and facilitating the integration of 4G and 5G networks.
