Modem Compute Engine MCE160 by Cognovo Ltd (acquired by u-blox)

Product Description

MCE160 from Cognovo is a C-programmable Modem Compute Engine targeted at next generation broadband wireless applications in Cellular UE (LTE Advanced), Connectivity (WiGig) and Infrastructure (Femto / Pico Cell).

The licensable and fully synthesisable core utilises a six-core Vector Signal Processor architecture to execute a wide range of single or multi-mode wireless modems purely in software and at a power consumption which makes it competitive with traditional hardware designs.
