Addressing the Mobile Data Tsunami

• Multiple parallel approaches required…

• New network topologies Cloud-RAN, small cells, DAS, HetNet…

• More efficient use of spectrum: LTE/OFDM, massive/high-order MiMO

• New technologies: wireless backhaul (relay), carrier Wi-Fi® offload

• Regulatory innovation with new spectrum (e.g. 5G), white spaces, spectrum re-farming (e.g 2G/3G reuse)

− More efficient (silicon size and power) for L1 processing

compared to a GPP

− Hardware-based accelerators for standard and repetitive

algorithms

− Low latency and deterministic behavior with L1 and L2

processed on same device

− 10 GbE connections for BBU balancing within the pool

• The base station-on-a-chip approach provides scalable

solution to suit varying capacity needs

• 10G backhaul connectivity is required

• QorIQ (T4240) ideal for Cloud-RAN, data-centric servers

− Lower power than competitor’s GPP

− SoC mimics cloud compute system architecture
