At an estimated CAGR of 150% + over the next 5 years, the fastest growing segment in consumer electronics is tablet PCs. This does not include the expected volumes driven by the convergence of the “Smartphone” (SMP) with this segment. Key attributes of these devices are ubiquitous communications (Wi-Fi, BT, DMB, UWB, Cellular (3G/4G), GPS, NFC), continuous access, and small size, without a compromise of functionality or battery-life. Consumers expect and demand that internet speeds (data throughput) are fast and un-interrupted. As LTE-based technologies are added, only one solution enables OEMs and ODMs to offer continuous communications with smaller form-factors, and better battery life—tunable RF.
Similar to what WiSpry provides to the mobile terminal OEMs and ODMs, WiSpry is able to provide tunable digital capacitor arrays which can be optimized as; antenna tuners (TA), which reduces the number of existing antennas and optimizes usage of antenna volume tunable impedance matching devices (TIM), which optimizes the RF front-end matching; tunable filters (TF) and tunable duplexers (TDP). These functions offer broadband performance, high Q and low loss- while conserving space, battery power and BOM.
