Integrated backhaul and access are among the key technologies needed to enable ambitious 5G demands. The 56 radio networks' increased capacity needs to be supported by faster and wider bandwidth backhaul that incorporates Gigabit Ethernet, optical fibre, or microwave/mmWave wired and wireless point-to-point links. Xilinx is a leading silicon provider for wireless infrastructure for digital radio front-end, connectivity, baseband acceleration, fronthaul/backhaul modem, and packet processing functions. The programmability and scalability of Xilinx platforms make them an ideal fit for these applications, particularly for radio, where a variety of form factors, frequencies, bandwidths, and radio access technologies need to be supported.
HCL's solutions provide a range of benefits, including keeping/extending the 'ACM QoS setup' mindset, providing more reliability than a stand-alone E-band link, and allowing more capacity than the lower frequency channel operating independently. Together, the HCL and Xilinx integrated solution will provide a highly configurable backhaul modem on an advanced 16nm FinFET+ technology node that will result in an overall reduction in bill-of-material (BOM) costs and a significant reduction in power dissipation compared to current solutions.
