3G / 3.5G (HSDPA) Digital Radio Technology Chosen by Panasonic
19th October , 2005

US : TelASIC Communications announced that Panasonic Mobile has selected TelASIC's solution for its next-generation 3.5G high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) network base transceiver station (BTS).

TelASIC offers transmit/transceiver radio subsystems and remote/integrated radio heads with industry-standard interfaces such as CPRI, OBSAI, Rapid-IO, digital I/Q and RF-in, for 3G, 3.5G (HSDPA), WiMAX, and WiBRO base stations.

TelASIC has internally developed ICs that allow the same radio to support any power amplifier (PA) and any air-interface (such as W-CDMA, HSDPA, CDMA2000, EV-DO/EV-DV, WCDMA-TDD, WiMAX, or WiBRO). TelASIC's radio subsystem products are designed to exceed operator requirements in every aspect, such as high crest factor reduction (CFR) and high digital pre-distortion (DPD) linearization, enabling the use of cheaper and lower output-power PAs for transmitting the same power.

"We have been evaluating and testing TelASIC technology for the last 12 months in our lab," said Masakazu Shobu, general manager of the Engineering Department of Panasonic Mobile Communications Co., Ltd.'s Networks Division. "I'm expecting TelASIC to de-risk our engineering program by delivering 3.5G radio technology that enables us to meet the requirements of our customers, who are extremely demanding in terms of performance."

3G cellular and mobile broadband infrastructure enables wireless operators to offer TV, music, gaming, high-speed mobile Internet and other margin-rich services that are in great demand. The 3G standard also increases voice service capacity by tenfold.

"Finally, next year is now, for 3G deployment," said Ashis Khan, Vice-President of Sales and Marketing at TelASIC. "Operators all over the world are spending CAPEX dollars to build 3G cellular and other mobile broadband infrastructures to offer new services. Japan is the recognized leader in deployment of 3G services, thanks to the enormous CAPEX spending by 3G pioneers. We are pleased to meet the tough performance requirements of Panasonic Mobile Communications Co., Ltd., who has one of the largest market shares in Japan's 3G/W-CDMA market."
