HSPA+ libraries launched for dsp core
IP licensing company CEVA has launched optimised HSPA+ software libraries for its CEVA-XC dsp core. The addition of the libraries is said to enable the implementation of a software based multimode HSPA/HSPA+/LTE/LTE-A solution.
"The addition of HSPA+ software libraries for our CEVA-XC processor architecture extends our leadership in offering robust solutions for customers designing multimode devices," said Eran Briman, CEVA's vp of marketing. "Together with our communications and LTE software libraries, we offer the most comprehensive software defined radio architecture for 3G/4G modem design."
The HSPA+ libraries support up to HSPA+ 3GPP Rel-8 worst case conditions, including MIMO and 64QAM. Peak downlink data rates of 42Mbit/s can be supported on one CEVA-XC processor. The libraries address such aspects as channel estimation, equalisation, demapping and deinterleaving.
