Wireless Communications

 

Xilinx offers high-performance, cost-effective solutions for wireless networking equipment, in areas such as RF digital front end (DFE) signal processing, baseband processing (including forward error correction (FEC), Fourier transforms and adaptive modulation),  and advanced interfacing, connectivity and bridging solutions. Xilinx and our partners offer:

  • Reference designs and hardware platforms to simplify the development of high-performance radio and baseband processing functions.
  • Flexible and upgradeable solutions that meet the challenges of evolving standards, such as WCDMA, WiMAX, TD-SCDMA and LTE.
  • IP and reference designs to support the latest radio, baseband and DSP connectivity standards, such as CPRI, OBSAI and SRIO.
  • Industry leading FEC solutions, such as advanced Turbo Codec algorithms, which improve throughput, reduce latency and lower cost-per-channel.
  • A comprehensive portfolio of networking solutions to support the development of new, low-latency, base station architectures and the transition towards an All-IP core and backhaul network..

Our available resources, organized by function and type, include:
