Revised SDR base station design offers higher bandwidth, a smaller form factor, and a lower power draw.
Cellular network giant Vodafone and software-defined radio specialist Lime Microsystems have announced they will be showing off a revamped version of their 5G network-in-a-box device, built around a Raspberry Pi 5 single-board computer.
“Following on from the success of last year’s unveiling of the Raspberry Pi 5G network-in-a-box at Mobile World Congress, Vodafone is introducing a new improved version at MWC24 with numerous use cases, ranging from network coverage extension to 5G network delivery via drone,” says Lime Micro’s Andrew Back. “The new system will be fully compatible with Raspberry Pi 5 for higher bandwidth and overall performance to address more demanding industrial applications.”
