Altair Semiconductor has launched its 3GPP LTE product roadmap that includes a baseband processor and complementing multiple-input multiple-output RF transceiver chips designed to support world-wide LTE bands and duplex-modes.

Altair’s LTE chipsets are developed using the company’s proprietary O2P software-defined 4G processor architecture.

This technology is currently deployed in Altair’s FourGee-2150 for mobile Wimax and FourGee-4150 for XGP, both recognized for high performance and power efficiency.

“The cellular chipset market is very competitive, so it is an essential strategy for 4G chip companies to own as wide a portfolio of baseband processors and RF transceivers as possible, in order to offer turn-key solutions to their customers,” said Oded Melamed, company CEO.
