Macro and Pico Basestations for GSM/EDGE
GSM (Global System for Mobile) communications is without doubt the world's most widely deployed standard for mobile phones. It is estimated that 80% of the global mobile market uses the standard –used by over 3 billion users across more than 200 regions. Furthermore OEM’s world-wide are still actively engaged in development programs in order to reduce costs, shrink foot print, and for remote deployments, slash power as well as upgrading to newer GSM releases.
Vocallo BTS is a fully integrated Digital Signal Processor (DSP) sub-system optimized for Layer 1 GSM/EDGE basestation applications. At the heart of the solution is Opus, Octasic's revolutionary asynchronous DSP core, bringing unparalleled advantages in carrier density, cost sustainability and power efficiency.
Being software defined, the solution is easily upgradable in the field to support evolving standards such as EDGE Evolution and its various options.
