1. A base station for a wireless communications network comprising:
a baseband processing unit;
a first radio module comprising a digital signal processing block connected to the baseband processing unit, the digital signal processing block being further connected to a first antenna;
a second radio module connected to the baseband processing unit and comprising a second antenna; and
the base station being configured to activate and deactivate the first radio module and second radio module based on data capacity requirements of the wireless communication network, the first radio module being activated when the data capacity requirements are in a first range and the second radio module being activated when the data capacity requirements are in a second range lower than the first range.
