On 11 June, Tokyo-based Mitsubishi Electric Corp is to begin shipping samples of a new 16W-average-power gallium nitride (GaN) power amplifier module (PAM) for 5G massive MIMO (mMIMO) base stations.
PAMs, which can be used in 32T32R mMIMO antennas (with 32 transmitters and receivers) to reduce the manufacturing cost and power consumption of 5G mMIMO base stations, are expected to be increasingly deployed as 5G networks expand from urban centers to regional areas.
In September 2023, Mitsubishi Electric began providing samples of a GaN PAM that achieves an average output power of 8W (39dBm) over a wide frequency range of 3.4-3.8GHz, suitable for 64T64R mMIMO antennas (64 transmitters and receivers) in 5G base stations. The new 16W (42dBm) GaN PAM achieves even higher average output power over a wide frequency range of 3.3-3.8GHz and is suitable for 32T32R mMIMO antennas, extending the communication range of 5G mMIMO base stations and lowering their manufacturing cost by reducing the required number of PAMs.
Mitsubishi Electric is exhibiting its new 16W GaN PAM at IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium (IMS) 2024 in Washington DC, USA (18-20 June).
