Taoglas and MixComm announced a technology partnership and their co-development of a 5G new radio (NR) mmWave smart antenna subsystem covering the 26,5-29,5 GHz band. The new mmWave antenna subsystem can support both infrastructure and IoT OEMs’ integration of 5G NR devices and is ideal for small cells, repeaters and customer-premises equipment (CPE) designs.
The co-development is based on Taoglas’ innovative KHA16.23C smart antenna subsystem, integrated with MixComm’s newly announced 5G 28 GHz Beamforming ‘Summit 2629’ front end IC. The KHA16.23C is a 2D antenna array integrated into a multi-layer PCB that contains the RFICs and 16 antenna elements; layers provide for power optimisation and thermal control, digital control, and RF feed lines, all in a footprint of 53 x 84 mm. Depending on device implementation, the Taoglas design is scalable with arrays of up to 1024 elements.
