Based on spectrally efficient modulations such as differential binary phase-shift keying and Gaussian frequency-shift keying, UNB optimises network capacity, while maximising the communication link budget.
Leti’s transceiver is called Foxy. The single chip sub GHz transceiver is a 65nm CMOS device capable of sustaining bandwidths of 100Hz.
“Foxy enables marginal cost, event-based, massive IoT applications, such as those that require millions of low-complexity nodes,” said Thierry Collette, head of Leti’s Architecture, IC Design and Embedded Software division. “It also enables complex IoT scenarios that require long node lifetimes.”
