At IMS 2018, Qorvo has introduced five new power amplifiers and front end modules that further expand its portfolio of RF products for massive MIMO and 5G base stations. These highly integrated, efficient, small-size modules support all frequency bands used for pre-5G and 5G architectures, from 3 GHz to 39 GHz.
The market for massive MIMO base station configurations is expected to reach USD $1 billion in RF solutions by 2022. Qorvo’s innovative gallium nitride (GaN) technology, with industry-leading performance, efficiency and power, enables transmission of multiple data streams with greater capacity, supporting rapid, cost-effective implementation of 5G networks. The new 5G products include two 2-stage power amplifiers, two integrated front end modules (FEMs), and a wideband driver amplifier. Qorvo recently announced two additional amplifiers – the QPF4005 and the QPF4006 – the industry’s first GaN FEMs for 39 GHz.
Qorvo is helping define 5G standards as a delegate to 3GPP and through collaboration with wireless infrastructure manufacturers, network operators, chipset providers and smartphone manufacturers. Qorvo has helped conduct dozens of 5G field trials, and Qorvo’s 28 GHz products supported the Samsung 5G MIMO demo at the 2018 Winter Olympics.
Qorvo is showcasing its industry-leading portfolio of advanced RF solutions at IMS from June 12-15, in Booth 725, at the Pennsylvania Convention Center.
