Wireless 5G BTS Need Super DSP core... CEVA XC-12
March 3, 2017
Once upon a time, one wireless base station (BTS) was expected to support one, and only one wireless protocol, like GSM (2G), first deployed in Finland in 1991, or CDMAOne (also 2G) developed by Qualcomm and released through the TIA in 1995. Just a precision: the GSM modem speed was reaching 14.4 Kbps (with only 9.6 Kbps usable by end-user) as well as the CDMAone competing technology...
Such a modem was already supported by a DSP core (Teak from CEVA or TI’ C54x), but you have now to figure out what kind of DSP is needed today to support the following requirements:
