Сегодня компания анонсирует платформу с поддержкой LTE-Advanced CA Cat.6 для обеспечения подключенности мобильных устройств со скоростью загрузки данных до 300 Мбит/с (возможность комбинации несущих общим объемом до 40 МГц).
Платформа построена на базе модемов Qualcomm Gobi 4G LTE, которые проверены в полевых условиях и во внедрениях B2C. Платформа обеспечивает поддержку LTE-Advanced FDD / TDD, а также 3G / DB/DC-HSPA+/WCDMA, EV-DO Advanced / Rev. B, TD-SCDMA. CDMA 1x Advances, GSM/EDGE). На ее базе можно будет строить планшеты и ноутбуки, которые смогут работать в самых разных странах.
Платформа основана на использовании чипсета Gobi 9x30 по технологии 20 нм (первый модем 20 нм с поддержкой Cat.6) в комбинации с чипом трансивера Qualcomm RF - Qualcomm WTR3925. Чипсет также поддерживает геолокационную платформу IZat. Кроме того, платформа поддерживает LTE Advanced Cat.6, две несущих HSUPA, включая двухдиапазонную поддержку HSPA+.
Платформа может использоваться в различных модулях для встраивания, включая форм-фактор M.2, LGA (land grid array). Она может работать под управлением таких ОС, как Android, Chrome OS, iOS, Windows. При использовании ее вместе с Qualcomm RF300 Front End Solution, можно обеспечить глобальное решение в рамках одного SKU LTE. Обеспечивается поддержка настройки антенн (antenna matching tuning), отслеживание пакетов (envelope tracking).
Новый чип, весьма вероятно, будет востребован прежде всего такими производителями планшетов и ноутбуков, как Dell, Fujitsu, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Panasonic and Toshiba. Кроме того, чип могут покупать такие производители модулей, как Amtel, Foxconn, Huawei, Longcheer, Sierra Wireless, TCL и ZTE.
На стенде компании на MWC2014 (3E10) Qualcomm демонстрирует поддержку LTE-A Cat.6 на базе платформы с модемом Gobi 9x30.
Платформа может использоваться в самых разных странах мира за счет поддержки большого числа наборов диапазонов частот 3GPP

Announces 4G LTE Advanced Category 6 Embedded Connectivity
Platform for Mobile Computing Products
— Fourth-generation
LTE multimode chipset doubles LTE data speeds up to 300 Mbps, deepens embedded
computing modem portfolio —
Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM) today
announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.,
introduced the world’s first commercial 4G LTE Advanced embedded data
connectivity platform with Category 6 download speeds of up to 300 Mbps for
mobile computing devices, including thin form factor laptops, tablets and
convertibles.
The platform builds upon three generations of
Qualcomm® Gobi™ 4G LTE modems that have been field tested and proven for
consumer and enterprise mobility deployments, extending Qualcomm Technologies’
leadership in enabling 3G and 4G solutions that cover the broadest range of
cellular technologies and RF bands worldwide.
This includes LTE support, both TDD and FDD implementations with
backwards compatibility to HSPA+, EVDO, and TD-SCDMA—enabling notebook and
tablet manufacturers to offer a single product that works in multiple regions
around the world.
The depth and breadth of our Gobi embedded computing modem portfolio allows PC OEMs and module vendors to pick the best solution for virtually any of today’s most popular mobile computing products – from high-end enterprise laptops to volume consumer tablets,” said Fram Akiki, senior director of product management for Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “Qualcomm’s technologies also are making it easier than ever for users to do more of what they want while on the go, whether it’s streaming 4K high-definition video or quickly accessing enterprise applications from the cloud.
The Embedded Connectivity Platform is based on
Qualcomm Technologies’ fourth-generation 3G/LTE modem chipset, the Gobi 9x30,
and Qualcomm RF transceiver chip, the Qualcomm WTR3925. The WTR3925 also
incorporates the Qualcomm IZat™ location platform designed for delivery of
seamless, global location. Together, these solutions enable a powerful,
optimized single platform designed to deliver up to 2X faster LTE Advanced
along with dual carrier HSUPA and dual band multi-carrier HSPA+, designed to
help enable OEMs to launch LTE Advanced Cat 6 devices faster on a global scale,
offer significant improvements in performance and power consumption compared to
previous generations, and require less printed circuit board area for thinner,
sleeker designs.
Qualcomm Technologies’ Embedded Connectivity
Platform supports a broad range of embedded modules, including thin form
factors such as M.2, and Land Grid Array, and an expansive ecosystem of module
vendors who utilize a range of Gobi chipsets, from 3G to 4G LTE Advanced – and
support for leading operating systems such as Android, Chrome OS, iOS and
Windows. The platform also can be paired with the Qualcomm RF360™ Front End
Solution to enable a global, single-SKU LTE platform. Qualcomm RF360 Front End
Solution features proven commercial technologies such as antenna matching
tuning and envelope tracking which improves connection reliability plus power
efficiency for optimal performance.
PC vendors who currently offer notebooks and
tablets with built-in LTE technology based on Qualcomm Technologies’
second-generation LTE chipset, the Gobi MDM9x15, include Dell, Fujitsu,
Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Panasonic and Toshiba.
