Abstract

The rapid growth of 5G base stations (BSs) and electric vehicles (EVs) introduces significant challenges for distribution network operation due to high energy consumption and variable loads. This paper proposes a coordinated day-ahead scheduling framework that integrates 5G BS task migration, storage utilization, and EV charging or discharging with mobility constraints. A mixed-integer second-order cone programming (MISOCP) model is formulated to optimize network efficiency while ensuring reliable power supply and maintaining service quality. The proposed approach enables dynamic load adjustment via 5G computing task migration and coordinated operation between 5G BSs and EVs. Case studies demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively generate an optimal day-ahead scheduling strategy for the distribution network. By employing the task migration strategy, the computational workloads of heavily loaded 5G BSs are dynamically redistributed to neighboring stations, thereby alleviating computational stress and reducing their associated power consumption. These results highlight the potential of leveraging the joint flexibility of 5G infrastructures and EVs to support more efficient and reliable distribution network operation.
