Axis Network Technology has introduced a super efficient triple mode power amplifier module and IP linearisation solution, offering a 45% final stage efficiency for UMTS ETSI compliant 64QAM systems at 2.1GHz.

The solution uses just a power amplifier module and IP block resident in the transmitter chain FPGA, therefore, the customer implementation is both simple and cost effective.

As well as UMTS, this solution operates with CDMA and OFDM (DVB, WiMAX and LTE) air interfaces. The solution supports up to 30MHz of signal bandwidth and single and multicarrier signals for all modes.

Franklin Wireless and Beceem Communications have partnered to revolutionize the mobile broadband user experience with the introduction of the world’s first dual-mode 3G CDMA/4G W

iMAX USB Modem, the Franklin U300 ( inset ).

The U300 was commercially released by Sprint on December 17th 2008 and is the first USB modem that can be used on Sprint’s existing 3G CDMA network and on Clearwire’s 4G WiMAX network (Sprint release). The U300 incorporates Beceem’s high-performance Mobile WiMAX chipset alongside an EVDO-Rev A chip and is available now at select Sprint retail locations.
