The demonstration will take place at the GSMA Mobile World Congress (formerly 3GSM), which will be held in Barcelona on 11 – 14 February 2008. Axis digital radio technology will be presented on the Xilinx stand, number 1E47 in Hall 1, throughout the show.
In addition to supporting Xilinx with their exciting demonstration of OFDMA solutions, Axis has a complete integrated RRH already moving into production for 2.5GHz and 3.5GHz WiMAX applications, offering 2 Tx MIMO at 4W or 8W with OBSAI or CPRI interfaces as standard. Axis’ capability combines expertise in RF technology with digital and baseband design experience, and this allows it to deliver fully operational end-to-end systems direct to the OEM. Its other products include high-efficiency TDD and FDD RF modules, for the 2.5GHz and 3.5GHz radio bands, and 2- and 4-channel digital radio modules for 400MHz to 4GHz.
Mobile World Congress is an ideal opportunity for Axis to showcase its digital radio products alongside the Xilinx FPGA and IP technology. From a sound base in WiMAX technology we are driving towards LTE products and this OFDMA demonstration continues our valuable forward looking relationship with Xilinx, comments Simon Mellor, CEO of Axis. Axis designs are targeted at delivering fully operational end-to-end LTE and WIMAX systems direct to the wireless OEM, thus reducing both their costs and the operating costs for the operators.
