mimoOn: CTIA WIRELESS, Las Vegas, April 1-3, 2008 mimoOn Stand Number
3853; mimoOn first to demonstrate end-to-end 3GPP LTE on Software
Defined Radio platforms

RDATE:26032008
Duisburg -- mimoOn GmbH, a leader in software defined radio (SDR)
solutions for advanced wireless standards, today announced the
implementation of an end-to-end LTE software solution that will
significantly accelerate development of mobile infrastructure and
client devices. The company offers two versions of its SDR LTE product:
one customized for base stations, picocells, and femtocells; and the
other for client devices such as data cards, mobile phones, wireless
modules and wireless modems. mimoOn will demonstrate its LTE SDR
solution at the CTIA WIRELESS show in Las Vegas, U.S., from April 1st
to 3rd.
mimoOn's solutions are also important for Test and Measurement vendors
who have to lead the industry and offer test equipment, before LTE
products can be released into the marketplace. One of the major themes
this year at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona was LTE and
enabling the next generation of wireless networks that can achieve
100Mbps downlink/50Mbps uplink. The challenge is that vendors have to
start design of LTE equipment now in order to meet market demands in
2009, even though the LTE specification is not yet ratified.
"From the start, mimoOn designed its software product for this market
reality" says Thomas Kaiser, CEO of mimoOn. "mimoOn's LTE product is
written in high level software making it easily upgradeable, and it is
implemented in SDR technology which can be reconfigured and remotely
upgraded when the standard is finalized."
LTE has been generating a lot of recent interest and activity for a
couple of key reasons. Firstly, due to the market demand for high-speed
mobile multimedia with consumers wanting the same quality experience
when mobile that they are used to receiving at fixed locations. And
secondly, there is the competition from rival technologies such as
mobile WiMAX that are starting to achieve early deployments and
increased market traction.
mimoOn's platforms offer the high processing power required for LTE,
but instead of using high clock frequencies, use parallel processing
technology in order to keep power consumption low. The software
solution also offers key features such as reconfigurability, which is
key for supporting legacy mobile standards such as 3G and 2G whilst LTE
evolves. The mimoOn SDR LTE platform supports the optional features of
LTE, and it is future-proof and scalable to meet the processing
requirements of future releases such as Advanced LTE and MIMO in the
uplink.
