AirWalk Communications collaborates with Mindspeed and Aricent to develop LTE picocell

Mar 15, 2010 (TELECOMWORLDWIRE via COMTEX) -- IP-based CDMA cellular radio network equipment provider AirWalk Communications Inc has announced it has collaborated with semiconductor solutions provider Mindspeed Technologies Inc (Nasdaq:MSPD) and communications technology company Aricent to develop an LTE picocell.


No financial details were disclosed.

The three companies said that a proof of concept will be on display at the CTIA Wireless 2010 conference and exhibition in Las Vegas on 23-25 March 2010.

According to the company, AirWalk's migration path to an LTE product line offers operators improved performance functionality through increased spectrum efficiency, increased capacity, peak data rates and low latency.

The LTE picocell in development incorporates Mindspeed's Transcede next-generation wireless baseband processor and associated components.

It combines RISC processor technology with a high-performance DSP processing array in a single chip, providing a low-cost/high-value processing capability.

The picocell also relies on Aricent's software solution to provide a robust platform. It incorporates selected elements from the Aricent LTE eNodeB stack portfolio and includes a Layer 2 stack for multi-core implementations.

AirWalk plans to begin offering an LTE product line starting with picocells in 2011, followed by femtocells.
