Enable javascript SPRINT AHEAD IN 5G: START WITH A COMPLETE RADIO PLATFORM SPRINT AHEAD IN 5G: START WITH A COMPLETE RADIO PLATFORM Shorten Design Cycles, Reduce Power, and Costs The new radio platform from Analog Devices for the 5G O-RAN ecosystem will feature all the core functionality of the radio unit including an O-RAN compliant, 7.2x low PHY baseband ASIC; ADI’s next-generation software-defined transceiver; an RF front end; as well as timing and power solutions. Designed to enable significant power, size, cost, and weight improvements, the radio platform addresses the critical power consumption and cost challenges of next-generation networks. The low PHY implements the eCPRI interface and supports LTE, 5G, and NB-IoT. A highly integrated transceiver with digital front end provides a low power radio conversion solution while minimizing RF front-end complexity and relaxing filter requirements. The DFE implements advanced algorithms for crest factor reduction (CFR) and digital predistortion (DPD) along with channel digital up/downconversion (DUC/DDC).
