Second Critical Patent for 3G Wireless Baseband Processor

9th November , 2004

US : IComm Technologies Inc. has just been granted a second very critical patent for its technology on Turbo Codes Decoder implementing concatenated SISO Log-MAP decoders.

The new patent serial number US6813742 was issued on November 2, 2004 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). ICOMM’s new patented Turbo Codes Decoder is part of its Wireless Baseband Processor specifically designed for applications in commercial 3rd Generation W-CDMA/CDMA2000 (3GPP/3GPP2) Base-station equipments and consumer wireless Receiver’s portable devices, which provides the best performance in term BER, and data throughput.

While other patented Turbo Convolutional Block Codes from French Telecom specifically designed for using in applications for space explorations, which are not feasible for commercial applications.

ICOMM’s patented Turbo Codes Decoder is the most powerful forward error correction (FEC) commercially available today, operating near the Shannon limit and achieving greater power efficiency than current commercially available FEC schemes. Also, ICOMM’s patented Wireless Baseband Processor implements Turbo Codes Decoders which is essential to 3GPP/3GPP2 platform for UTMS and 3G W-CDMA.

IComm offers its patented Turbo Codes Decoder product IP soft core with IP licensing, which is available in both VHDL and Verilog RTL codes. This patent Wireless Baseband Processor with its Turbo Codes Decoder is being made available through the Turbo Codes Licensing Program to ASIC, FPGA, DSP software developers, and wireless communications equipment manufacturers, as well as IP Core Developers.

A patent license is required in most instances for implementation of embedded Turbo Codes Decoders within a 3rd Generation wireless W-CDMA communication systems applications, such as an ASIC, FPGA, DSP software developers, or W-CDMA communication equipments (base-stations and portable devices) manufacturers. For Technology IP License, please contact IComm Technologies, Inc. at 1-866-643-ICOM for more details.
