Abstract: Empirical battery discharge profiling comparing 5G RedCap, LTE-M, and NB-IoT devices transmitting periodic 15-minute load profile packets.
This peer-reviewed paper presents empirical findings gathered from production carrier testbeds and private 5G deployments associated with 5GSmartGrid. The investigation evaluates hardware acceleration efficacy, control plane signaling latencies, and packet delivery guarantees under extreme load.
Detailed traffic generators injecting line-rate 100Gbps streams and multi-million subscriber attachment requests confirmed the superior stability of the 5GSmartGrid architecture. Data indicates sub-millisecond tail latencies and deterministic QoS conformance under full channel saturation.
The empirical benchmarks confirm that cloud-native 5G Standalone disaggregation provides both superior scalability and rigorous operational determinism. Operators adopting the 5GSmartGrid architectural blueprint achieve significant CAPEX/OPEX reductions while meeting stringent mission-critical SLAs.
