“ASTELLA is pleased to continue its long standing collaboration with all the 5G industry leaders to offer commercial ready, competitive and high performance 5G solutions. Our proven expertise in the wireless communication systems and wireless baseband technologies could accelerate our partners to have quick time to market 5G solutions.”

The demonstration leverages key building blocks from a growing partner ecosystem which consists of:

• NXP Semiconductors’ integrated small cell hardware platform featuring the company’s Layerscape Access LA1200 family of programmable baseband processors, along with its high-performance Arm-based multicore communications processing platform (LX2160).
• Metanoia’s 5G RF Sub-6GHz RFIC (the MT3812) and each RFIC supports 2T2R and 100MHz system bandwidth.
• ASTELLA 5G Software for integrated small cells consisting of high-performance high PHY and low PHY software with Digital Front-End (DFE) and is powered by ASTRI 5G technologies.
• Capgemini Engineering commercial 5G Layer2/Layer3 protocol stack.
• ASTRI’s high performance 5G Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) and 5G Core.

The 5G integrated small cell is configured as a 4T4R 100MHz system bandwidth solution and is attached with a commercial terminal running live data streaming traffic achieving over 1Gbps end-to-end throughput.

ASTELLA 5G integrated small cells support both indoor and outdoor deployments as well as FR1 and FR2 frequency bands. Integrated with 5G Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) and 5G Core from ASTRI, ASTELLA 5G solutions are highly cost competitive for new 5G use cases such as industrial internet of things (IoT), NR Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X), 5G mission critical applications etc.

Dr Eric Tsang, CEO of Astella Technologies Limited, said, “ASTELLA is pleased to continue its long standing collaboration with all the 5G industry leaders to offer commercial ready, competitive and high performance 5G solutions. Our proven expertise in the wireless communication systems and wireless baseband technologies could accelerate our partners to have quick time to market 5G solutions.”

Dr Justin Chuang, VP of Communications Technologies of ASTRI, said, “ASTRI has participated in MWC Barcelona for about 10 years continuously to promote technologies with our partners and connect with the world for collaboration. This year, we are delighted to join hands with our partners Astella, Capgemini Engineering, Metanoia and NXP to showcase integrated and commercial ready 5G O-RAN small cell solution, together with ASTRI’s 5G MEC and 5G Core solution. We will work closely with eco-system partners to accelerate the commercialization of 5G technologies and enable a wider range of emerging applications such as smart cities, industrial IoT, C-V2X, AR/VR etc.”
