Fujikura will showcase Type-C and demonstrate for a 256-element antenna module equipped with 4 PAAMs. Five oral presentations on PAAMs will be delivered.
KOTO-KU, TOKYO, JAPAN, June 5, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — Fujikura Ltd. (President and CEO: Naoki Okada) will present the latest 28-GHz-band phased array antenna module (PAAM)『FutureAccess™』high-power version Type-C for 5G base stations at the IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium 2024*¹ (IMS2024). At the exhibition booth, we will showcase the Type-C module and demonstrate for the first time a 256-element antenna module equipped with 4 PAAMs. Additionally, Five oral presentations on PAAMs will be delivered at the symposium, including joint presentations with Rohde & Schwarz*², Avnet*³, and MathWorks*⁴.

Contents of the Fujikura Booth
In addition to the static display featuring the “FutureAccess™” Type-C module, we will also have a 256-element antenna module with four PAAMs arranged in a 2✕2 arrangement for a live demonstration.
In the demo, the R&S®ATS800B CATR benchtop antenna test system *⁵ provided by Rohde & Schwarz will be used to create a far-field*⁶ in a compact environment.
The transmitting output of an antenna module composed of 4 PAAMs is 16 times that of a single PAAM, and the receiving sensitivity is 4 times that of a single PAAM, greatly improving communication distance with mobile media. What sets our PAAM apart is its unique calibration-free design, which allows for this exceptional transmission and reception performance without the need for calibration.
You will be able to check its reception performance in a live demo.

*5 R&S®ATS800B CATR benchtop antenna test system
An extremely compact far-field over-the-air (OTA) test system based on compact antenna test range (CATR) technology.
*6 Far field
An area where the measurement point is far enough away from the antenna that the antenna gain can be considered constant. Normally, the distance required for far-field measurements increases proportionately to the antenna aperture diameter square, and measurement errors increase at shorter distances.
