Europe : In a ground-breaking demonstration, Freescale Semiconductor will be streaming video using high speed download packet access (HSDPA) category five, 3.6 Mbps class technology with its partner Rohde & Schwarz on the 3G dual core modem i.300-30 platform.
HSDPA is essential to realizing the power of and maximizing network operator investments in 3G. It provides the bandwidth for advanced applications and a mobile alternative to broadband DSL and cable, while reducing the cost per megabyte of data transmission for the cellular operator. Partnering for success For demonstrating and testing of HSDPA, Freescale partnered with Rohde & Schwarz for its Wideband CDMA Radio Test Unit (R&S CRTU-W) protocol tester and software products. Layer 1 test software implementations in WCDMA and HSDPA terminals, the official tree and tabular combined notation (TTCN) conformance test cases, plus the Rohde & Schwarz R&S CRTU-WT02 C++ programming interface played an important role in Freescale's development of the HSDPA-enabled i.300-30 platform. To truly speed time-to-market for manufacturers, integrated hardware and proven software aren't enough. Freescale complements this hardware and software with full featured tool suites to make certification and interoperability testing easier for manufacturers. For RF certification of the Freescale platform, Freescale will use the Rohde & Schwarz R&S TS 8950G/W test system, including Radio Resources Management (RRM) capabilities. Freescale 3G solutions Freescale delivers a full range of UMTS/W-CDMA and GSM/GPRS platforms and components with a proven software stack, the industry's first single core modem architecture and full portfolio of connectivity-attach technologies. These open, scalable solutions help to reduce risk and cost, speed and ease time-to-market and create design freedom for handset manufacturers, network operators and third party partners and developers. Freescale provides the flexibility to differentiate, cut costs and innovate - it's freedom for 3G. www.freescale.com/3G About Freescale Semiconductor Freescale Semiconductor, Inc.
