MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. and SANTA ROSA, Calif., Feb. 23, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- CEVA, Inc. (NASDAQ: CEVA), the leading licensor of signal processing platforms and artificial intelligence processors for smarter, connected devices, and Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology company that helps enterprises, service providers, and governments accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world today announced a joint technology demonstration at Mobile World Congress 2018 in Barcelona, Spain. The demonstration includes CEVA's new PentaG™ 5G New Radio (NR) IP platform for enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) and Keysight's Signal Studio to generate 5G NR downlink signals with varying MIMO channel impairments. Attendees can view the demonstration at CEVA's booth, Hall 7 stand F60.
CEVA's PentaG performs the 5G NR CSI (Channel State Information) which is the most critical 5G NR receiver task to maximize UE received data throughput in multi-user, massive MIMO system using advanced MLD decoders. CEVA's 5G NR CSI showcases the efficiency of its AI Processor that uses novel machine learning techniques to maximize data throughput.
"Keysight is committed to helping 5G technology leaders like CEVA illustrate the full potential of their product designs with our comprehensive 5G NR signal generation and analysis software tools," said Will Sitch, director of Industry and Solutions Marketing at Keysight Technologies. "Mobile World Congress provides a great opportunity to showcase our 5G signal generation and analyzer software with the PentaG for customers."
"We're delighted to continue our collaboration with Keysight and be able to demonstrate the real-world performance capabilities of our PentaG 5G NR platform," said Michael Boukaya, vice president and general manager of the wireless business unit at CEVA. "Keysight's Signal Studio and Vector Signal Analyzer create the perfect test environment for our platform, and offer our PentaG customers a compelling solution to accelerate their 5G product design and validation."
