ADI Announces Technology and Ecosystem for 5G Transition
Published2017.06.07 10:24Analog Devices (ADI) has announced its latest RadioVerse™ technology and design ecosystem.
The RadioVerse™ product family provides new wireless transceiver hardware, software tools, and a stable design environment that contribute to reducing the size and power consumption of wireless devices required for next-generation networks. It enables rapid evaluation and development of 4G small cells and Pre-5G massive MIMO systems, which are essential for the transition to 5G. While increasing data transmission speed, it improves connectivity and data throughput in densely populated areas such as offices, stadiums, and public transportation where traffic is congested.
Among the newly added products to RadioVerse™ for wireless design at the circuit, architecture, system, and software levels is the AD9375, ADI's broadband RF transceiver product family with excellent integration capabilities. The AD9375 is the first RF transceiver to implement the Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD) algorithm on-chip, and through this innovative design, DPD power consumption can be reduced by approximately 90 percent compared to other competing solutions.
By moving the DPD and DUC system from the FPGA to the transceiver, the number of lanes in the JESD204B serial data interface can be reduced by half, which enables lower power consumption in systems such as Pre-5G massive MIMO where the number of antennas per base station increases from the conventional 2 antennas to approximately 128 antennas.

ADI Launches Synchronous DC/DC Controller for Small Circuit Sizes
Analog Devices announced the launch of the LTC7800, a synchronous step-down DC/DC controller capable of operating at a maximum of 2.25MHz to enable use in compact circuit sizes and high power density applications. The product has a minimum on-time of 45ns and enables conversion from 24VIN to 3.3VOUT. Since it switches at a fixed 2MHz, it can avoid demanding noise-sensitive frequency bands including AM radio. Synchronous rectification provides up to 95% efficiency, and Burst Mode® operation maintains quiescent current below 50μA in no-load standby conditions, making it ideal for always-on systems.

SK Telecom First Applies AI-Based Network Operations at Gwanghwamun K-Pop Concert
SK Telecom announced that it applied an AI-based network operation system for the first time at a large-scale K-pop concert held in the Gwanghwamun area of Seoul on March 21st, managing communication quality throughout the event. Mobile data usage during the three hours before and after the concert reached 12.15TB, approximately doubling compared to the same time slot the previous weekend. SK Telecom monitored traffic using the AI system 'A-One' in five-minute and 50-meter units to respond to potential overload situations, while also operating temporary communication facilities and on-site personnel in parallel. This case is interpreted as confirmation of the practical applicability of AI-based autonomous network operation in an environment where demand from dense events and foreign users increases simultaneously.
