Morphology

rebase = base (transparent) = re + base

This is regular 're-' plus 'base' meaning to base or station something again in a new location.

Etymology

Rebase comes from re- 'again' and base 'main place' or 'home'. So, to rebase a unit or equipment is to move it again to a different base or headquarters.
