mimoOn integrates LTE PHY software on Texas Instruments' new system-on-chips for small cell base stations

Highly optimized, pre-integrated solution offers customers increased scalability and reduced development time

Duisburg, GERMANY, August 1, 2011 – mimoOn, a pioneer in LTE software licensing for Software Defined Radio (SDR) platforms, today announced its collaboration with Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) for 3GPP compliant LTE PHY software. TI will offer complete PHY software for LTE Release 8 and 9 for its’ KeyStone multicore architecture, with a specific focus on its newest TMS320TCI6612 and TMS320TCI6614 System-on-Chips (SoCs). These SoCs are especially designed for small cell base stations in the enterprise, pico and metro markets.

According to Thomas Kaiser, CEO of mimoOn, “We expect the LTE small cell market to grow substantially in the coming years. With a first design-in already confirmed, together we are already enabling OEMs to take delivery of a pre-integrated, fully optimized and production ready small cell solution.”

“Our new KeyStone-based small cell SoCs work very well with mimoOn’s LTE PHY software,” said Kathy Brown, General Manager, Wireless Base Station Infrastructure, TI. “mimoOn is an excellent partner for us to collaborate with to extend our market leading LTE performance into the small cell arena.”
