Abstract
A radio unit for a cellular radio access network comprises electronic circuits including a cellular transceiver, a housing enclosing the transceiver circuit, and one or more flexible, thin-film solar cells or folia integrated with the housing or sprayed onto housing to convert solar radiation into electrical energy. The one or more area of solar cells can be used to provide power to the transceiver circuit or cooling fans to offset power consumption from the power gird.
