ANALOG DEVICES LAUNCHES REFERENCE DESIGN PLATFORM FOR RADIO DESIGNERS
The fully integrated open radio unit (O-RU) reference design platform enables radio designers to reduce risk and time to market.
Analog Devices, Inc. recently announced it has launched a fully integrated open radio unit (O-RU) reference design platform. The platform is a complete solution from the optical fronthaul to RF and allows for hardware and software customization for macro and small cell radio units (RUs). It leverages industry-leading technologies that drive advanced 4G and 5G RU requirements and includes support for all sub 6GHz band and power variants, including multi-band applications.
The ADRV904x-RD O-RU reference design platform includes ADI’s fifth generation 8T8R RadioVerse® SoC with advanced digital front end including field-proven digital pre-distortion (DPD). ADI’s fully featured, commercial O-RAN 7.2a IP Stack is hosted on Intel’s Agilex 7 F-series FPGA, delivering superior performance/watt. The platform has been tested with Radisys® Layer 2/3 software running on Intel FlexRan server hardware for 8T8R macro deployment scenarios.
The interoperability-proven platform with fully functional end-to-end calls is on display at Mobile World Congress (MWC) within ADI’s booth (Hall 2, 2B18).
