Highlights:

• As the wireless communications market converges to an integrated 5G network of networks, Anokiwave continues to focus on delivering a high-volume manufacturing platform that provides the lowest cost and highest performance to meet market demand.
• The common intersection of this coexistence of markets is the need to support systems with mmW Phased Array Antennas – a new technology for many in the field.
• Anokiwave has developed and deployed multiple generations of both SATCOM and 5G mmW products in volume production, providing OEMs unparalleled application expertise, leading to better array designs and faster time to market as well and most importantly, the experience to support customers in expanding their networks beyond traditional 5G or SATCOM use cases.

According to the Wilson Center, a U.S. based policy forum group, fifth generation wireless technology is a core foundation in our society and will be essential in how industries compete and generate value, how people communicate and interact, and how militaries pursue security for their citizens. The underpinning technology (mmW phased array antennas) for this vision to become a reality, and the business models for mass adoption of this technology makes the coexistence of mmW markets both technically possible and economically feasible.

Anokiwave predicted this this industry juxtaposition 10 years ago foreseeing the exponential demand for increased data rates coupled with silicon ICs enabling low cost mmW phased array antennas would create an entirely new market for silicon ICs and began developing a product portfolio of highly cost-effective solutions. Today, Anokiwave has the enviable position of being one of the few companies in the industry with multiple generations of ICs, that enable low-cost phased array antennas, released, and deployed in 5G, SATCOM, X-Band RADAR, and Aerospace and Defense markets.

“Anokiwave is dedicated to enabling OEMs succeed in the mmW 5G market with key mmW innovations that provide critical market solutions,” states Robert S Donahue, Anokiwave CEO. “Our knowledge base and intimate familiarity with millimeter-wave challenges and best practices give us a unique perspective into these applications which, coupled with our strength in IC design, is invaluable to our customers.”

Through cutting-edge solutions and co-innovation with customers, we continue to make mmW easy for OEMs as the trusted source of innovative mmW solutions. Anokiwave is dedicated to developing innovative, high-performance, highly integrated IC platforms in high volume that are compact, cost effective, and deliver faster time-to-market for OEMs.
