The Arcadian system extends the range over which telephone companies can deliver voice and data services to remote customers. By using Stratix FPGAs, Cape Range Wireless was able to cut their component costs by 40 percent and reduce their board size by 25 percent compared to their previous solution.
Cape Range relies on Stratix FPGAs to perform baseband processing, which is a critical part of wireless infrastructure products. Baseband processing requires performance-intensive digital signal processing (DSP) functions such as error correction, modulation, encoding, and decoding. High-density Stratix devices provide the ideal combination of processing power and programming flexibility required to integrate many of these functions into a single device. The seamless migration path to a low-cost HardCopy structured ASIC for high-volume production further extends the value proposition that Altera’s solutions offers to customers.
“After an exhaustive evaluation of high-performance programmable logic offerings, we chose Altera’s Stratix devices for our Arcadian Wireless platform. The Stratix architecture enabled us to achieve the highest integration, providing us with a performance boost and a significant cost savings. In addition, Altera’s expertise in wireless communications, as well as the ability to migrate our design from an FPGA device into a HardCopy structured ASIC for high-volume production, set Altera apart from the competition.”
