WiMAX and LTE at MWC ‘09
At MWC ’09 picoChip will reveal the reality of two of the hottest technologies in today’s communications industry; femtocells and LTE. Our stand (1D56 in Hall 1) will feature demonstrations of our multi-standard reference platforms and system-on-chip solutions, including live video streaming via LTE.
As a committed member of the Femto Forum, we are also participating actively in the FemtoZone, a central point of information at MWC ’09 for all things femtocell. The FemtoZone will feature public presentations from operators and vendors; picoChip’s VP of Marketing Rupert Baines is amongst the presenters, and will share details of picoChip’s latest advances in integrating femtocells with the wider network.
A recent study by the Femto Forum has concluded that interference between the macro and femto networks need not be a barrier to femtocell deployment. The study – to which picoChip was an active contributor – identified a number of technologies that can mitigate interference, and found that femtocells can deliver an order of magnitude more capacity than the macro network alone in dense deployments.
| Speed development and test with a femtocell-in-a-box! picoChip’s range of kitted demo or “femtocell-in-a-box” products enable OEMs, operators, research laboratories and software vendors to develop and test WiMAX, WCDMA and TD-SCDMA products. Available as configurable demo kits or as laboratory standard products in ruggedized metal chassis, they integrate baseband software, a demonstration radio, gateway and core network functionality, terminals, PC-based software and Linux board support packages.

picoChip's training courses allow engineers, scientists, designers and academics to learn about multi-core DSP, software defined radio and current wireless standards. As well as gaining skills and knowledge about how to design with and program the powerful picoArray processors, attendees can choose to learn about the latest developments in WiMAX and WCDMA PHY and MAC implementation. Discounts are available for non-commercial organizations (including Universities and Colleges) and for those booking several places on the same open course.

Continuous Computing has announced that its Trillium Femtocell 3G protocol and reference implementation software has been selected by Communication & Satellite (C&S) Microwave to power its Femtocell Access Point (FAP). C&S Microwave, a Korean RF designer, developer, and manufacturer, will use Continuous Computing’s reference implementation for 3G FAPs based on picoChip’s PC202 solution.

Ubiquisys and picoChip have extended their five-year working relationship with the announcement that they are collaborating to integrate the picoChip PC302 femtocell SoC into the next generation of Ubiquisys ZoneGate femtocells.
Current ZoneGate femtocells use picoChip’s PC202 processor: the PC302 is a “hardened”, cost-optimized version of this proven design that also supports advanced capabilities such as self-organizing networks.
