Research and Markets: Ericsson RBS6000 Digital Units ASICs Technology Analysis Report


Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/gnd5bq/ericsson_rbs6000) has announced the addition of EJL Wireless Research's new report "Ericsson RBS6000 Digital Units ASICs Report" to their offering.

This report provides a comprehensive technology analysis of the digital baseband unit ASICs within the Ericsson (News - Alert) RBS6000 base station platform. The ASICs analyzed are used in the following Ericsson digital units: DUG 10, DUG 20, DUW 10, DUW 20, DUW 30, DUL 20, DUS 31, and DUS 41. There is a total of six Ericsson baseband ASICs contained within this report.

Ericsson and other BTS OEMs typically deploy Base Transceiver Station (BTS) systems with an average service life of 7 to 10 years. Ericsson BTS systems seem to grow more and more complex with each deployment. The LTE (News - Alert) baseband, and specifically the digital unit (DU), perform most of the LTE standard-required functions, including baseband processing of giga-operatios-per second throughput. For this reason, the DU is the most computationally intensive component of an LTE system. This report focuses on baseband processing, and specifically the ASICs used in Ericsson digital units. Currently deployed Ericsson DUs perform the baseband processing of multiple Radio Access Networks (RANs) due to the multiple standards in currently sold mobile devices. Each ASIC in an Ericsson DU is part of a software-centric Ericsson Radio System Architecture. The Ericsson RBS 6000 BTS system supports GSM/EDGE, W-CDMA/HSPA, LTE, and CDMA in a single unit.
