北京2021年3月26日 /美通社/ -- Analog Devices, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADI)今日推出一款基于ASIC的无线电平台，该平台针对符合O-RAN规范的5G无线电单元而设计，旨在缩短上市时间，并满足5G网络不断发展的需求。O-RAN生态系统使用开放标准来分解传统网络，支持跨运营商网络的更大灵活性和更多功能。
ADI的无线电平台包含O-RAN兼容5G无线电单元所需的所有核心功能，包括基带ASIC、软件定义收发器、信号处理和电源。这款先进的无线电平台旨在显著提升性能和改进外形尺寸，以应对下一代网络将面临的功耗和成本方面的严峻挑战，同时缩短客户的设计周期。
ADI公司无线通信事业部副总裁Joe Barry表示：“O-RAN采用开放标准重新构思网络结构，希望以此打破传统市场，而这需要全面创新的射频解决方案。ADI的创新O-RAN解决方案为5G应用提供了性能优化的无线电平台，标志着生态系统向前迈出了一大步。”
O-RAN将逐步消除进入壁垒，为当前和新兴的无线供应商提供新的契机。ADI直接与生态系统参与者交互合作，以优化总体系统效率，确保互操作性，进一步提升行业技术水平。
“向市场推出low-PHY基带ASIC让我们向O-RAN迈进了一大步。现在，原始设备制造商在打造有竞争力的宏蜂窝和小蜂窝的系统上有了清晰的路径”，沃达丰集团（Vodafone Group）的O-RAN RF和数字平台开发经理Andy Dunkin表示，“正是这样的举措有助于构建健康的生态系统 ”。
ADI公司的平台有助于无线电设计人员和制造商针对宏蜂窝和小蜂窝解决方案优化总体系统性能。设计人员借助参考设计，采用以下各项产品方案即可创建符合O-RAN规范的无线电单元：
Parallel Wireless公司首席执行官Steve Papa表示：“为消除O-RAN生态系统的进入壁垒，ADI公司一直努力为众多无线供应商提供全新级别的支持，我们为此深受鼓舞。这款解决方案将会加速Option 7.2功能划分的标准化，简化互操作性集成。”
各技术评估平台将于今年晚些时候面世。
