    1. Blu Wireless pivots to start ramp up for 60GHz

      By Nick Flaherty on October 15, 2012 9:00 AM | No TrackBacks Bristol start-up Blu Wireless Technology is ramping up its 60GHz development for multi gigabit WiFi and 4G MetroCell wireless backhaul markets after changing its business model and closing a series of deals with semiconductor and system companies. Previously a traditional fabless company, BWT 'pivoted' its business model earlier this year to instead become a supplier of System IP (SIP) fo

    2. Freescale targets 4G LTE femtocell designs

      Freescale Semiconductor has a reference design which will bring 4G LTE to femnocell in-the-home basestations. The design is partially powered by two gallium arsenide (GaAs) monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs). According to Freescale, the MMZ25332B and MMZ09312B GaAs MMIC amplifiers were chosen because of their linearity and power efficiency when covering multiple bands, including Band 1/WCDMA and Band 13/LTE. The MMICs can be easily tuned to support multiple UMTS frequency bands. Ac

    3. 4G LTE will be bigger winner at MWC 2012

      The mobile phone industry will gather at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona later this month and it will say “4G is happening, at last”. The important 4G mobile technologies on show in Barcelona this month will be LTE and small cell basestations. These are femtocells which are a little larger than the one in your home. Global capital spending on LTE technology is projected to jump in size to $24.3bn in 2013, says market analyst IHS iSuppli. This rapid growth means that LTE will soon overtake

    4. Five chipsets in small cell shoot-out

      Five processor-based chipset designs are battling for shares of the growing small cell basestation market, says market watcher In-Stat. Small cells include femtocells that serve as few as 4 users and have an effective range of 15-50 meters (typically used in residences and small enterprises); picocells, used to provide coverage indoors and outdoors for up to 100 users; and microcells, used to support as many as 1,000 users and have an effective range of 2-3 kilometers. This is potentially a boom

    5. 4G is coming (its good news for LTE chip suppliers)

      By Richard Wilson on February 1, 2012 3:33 PM | No Comments | No TrackBacks So it seems LTE mobile technology the 4G battle and take most of the wireless infrastructure capital spend next year. Global capital spending on LTE technology is projected to jump in size to $24.3bn in 2013, according to an IHS iSuppli Wireless Communications report. This rapid growth means that LTE will soon overtake 3.5G, which will end its five-year
