Qorvo HBT PA used in Qualcomm cellular-V2X automotive reference design
Designed to enhance travel safety consciousness and improve driver assistance, the Qorvo GaAs HBT PA claims to be the only PA announced to support C-V2X. The PA is designed to offer industry-leading performance, with higher linear output power and improved efficiency to lower thermal conditions required for automotive applications using C-V2X.
C-V2X is designed to support active safety and help enhance situational awareness by detecting and exchanging information using low latency direct transmission in the 5.9 GHz ITS band for Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle-to-Pedestrian (V2P) situations with no need for cellular subscription or any network assistance. C-V2X is defined by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Release 14 specifications including PC5-based direct communications, with a clear evolution path towards 5G New Radio (5GNR).
At CES® 2018 Qorvo products designed to solve the toughest automotive RF challenges will be showcased.
