Fujitsu Microelectronics America Inc. plans to introduce its new mobile WiMAX base-station system-on-a-chip (SoC) product at WiMAX World 2008 in Chicago.
The company said the device is built on its 65nm process technology and is designed to meet the cost requirements of a femto- base-station architecture. Fujitsu said the product is scalable to be able to support pico- and micro- base-station architectures.
The incorporates all the PHY and MAC features as well as the analog and digital radio control and analog circuits required for base-station products to pass Mobile WiMAX Wave 2 certification requirements, said the company.
Samples of the product will be available during the first quarter of next year, said Fujitsu.
In addition, during WiMAX World, Fujitsu said it will showcase its 802.16e-2006 mobile WiMAX SoC, which is a single-chip MAC and PHY mixed-signal device optimized for mobile stations, mobile terminals and PC cards. The company plans to host a MIMO-based wireless demonstration that will show how MPEG2 HL video clips stored in the video server are sent as a multimedia stream via base-station equipment to the mobile station containing the Fujitsu baseband mobile WiMAX SoC. The company said it has achieved a 40 Mbps throughput at the SoC level.
