Accelerating 5G Wireless Communications
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWKS), an innovator of high
performance analog semiconductors connecting people, places and
things, today launched its first family of products from its
breakthrough Sky5™ platform enabling 5G connectivity. The advanced
wireless engines, which include highly integrated, high performance
transmit/receive front-end solutions as well as diversity receive
(DRx) modules, are designed specifically for new spectrum in the
sub-6 GHz range, are baseband agnostic and compliant with 3GPP
standards. Future products will include modules that address eLAA
and C-V2X applications in the same frequency ranges.

To meet early demand for sub-6 GHz 5G new radio (NR) usage
cases, Skyworks is leveraging its vast technology portfolio to meet
requirements for low, mid, high, and ultra-high cellular frequency
bands. Through its powerful SkyBlue™ enabling technology, these
modules also provide industry-leading power efficiency. All Sky5™
solutions will support new 5G waveforms and spectrum in addition to
enhanced carrier aggregation and dual connectivity (4G/5G) while
delivering exceptional levels of integration and performance.
“Skyworks’ innovative Sky5™ architectures are accelerating the
deployment of 5G wireless communications,” said Joel King, vice
president and general manager of Advanced Mobile Solutions for
Skyworks. “We recognize that 5G requires significantly more
powerful and complex connectivity solutions and are excited to
employ our systems expertise, operational scale and solid customer
partnerships to resolve these challenges and enable our customers
to launch new and previously unimagined products and
applications.”
According to Ericsson’s June 2017 Mobility Report, 15 percent of
the world's population is expected to be covered by 5G in 2022.
North America is projected to be first in adoption rates for 5G
with a quarter of all mobile subscriptions in the region to be on
5G by 2022.
The GSMA reports that 60 percent of the world’s population is
already covered by 4G networks and more than 2.5 billion
individuals are connected to 3G or 4G networks and services.
LTE-Advanced networks will form the foundation for rapid rollout of
5G, providing both networks and platforms to further digitize
economies and societies.
