5G NR Design for eMBB

5G/6G image Next-generation 5G/6G communication systems will provide massive connectivity to the
internet with extreme capacity, coverage, reliability, and ultra-low latency, enabling a wide
range of new services made possible through innovative technologies. Enhanced mobile
broadband (eMBB) extends the current mobile experience with high data throughput on the
order of more than 10Gbps, high system capacity on the order of more than 1000X that of LTE,
and a much better spectral efficiency (3-4X) than LTE. This white paper examines the design
challenges for eMBB products and provides examples of how these challenges can be
overcome using the co-design capabilities in Cadence AWR Design Environment software.

What:

A new 5G NR Design for eMBB white paper showcases the unique system and circuit capabilities in Cadence software that overcome eMBB design challenges. A 28GHz receiver integrated circuit (IC) and phased-array reference design is presented in which the capabilities of AWR Design Environment, Virtuoso RF Solution, EMX Planar 3D Solver, and Allegro PCB Designer software were combined to develop the RFIC receiver, package, and board with embedded antenna array.
