Fujitsu Features WiMAX SoC

Fujitsu Microelectronics America Inc. (FMA), a provider of wireline and wireless system-on-chip (SoC) platforms, will display fixed wireless systems based on the WiMAX SoC from its customer Solectek at the WCA International Symposium and Business Expo this week in San Jose, Calif.

The Fujitsu Mobile WiMAX SoC includes IEEE 802.16e-2005, a MAC/PHY mixed-signal baseband processor; support for all required channel bandwidths and modulation schemes; and 90nm process coupled with compact BGA packaging.

For fixed applications, the Fujitsu WiMAX SoC MB87M3550 supports channel bandwidths from 1.75MHz to 20MHz, and can operate in either TDD or FDD mode. When using 64QAM modulation in a 20MHz channel and with all 192 sub-carriers supported, the SoC data rate can reach up to 75mbps.

Fujitsu also will publish a new white paper on the use of fixed WiMAX for surveillance system applications and a technology backgrounder. It outlines how the maturing IEEE 802.16-2004 standard and new innovations in fixed wireless are making security surveillance affordable and easy to deliver for mainstream applications.
