Configurable silicon lets hardware run as a 4G/5G radio through to digital baseband at layer 3.
Chipsets add mmWave to 5G base station radios
Up/down converters and beamformers from Analog devices cover frequencies from 24 GHz to 43.5 GHz. mmWave, the part of 5G that brings those happy faces on wireless carrier commercials, adds up/down conversion to the 5G RF signal chain. Beamforming, needed to direct signals to users, plays an important role. After all, who doesn’t need to…
