TMYTEK Shows XBeam at UTHF in Silicon Valley
POSTED ON JANUARY 31, 2020 BY CICITANG
Besides speaker talks and panel discussion, there was also live demo tables on-site with 5G instrument solutions for cellular V2X from Rohde & Schwartz and 5G millimeterwave(mmWave) test solution from TMYTEK, a Taiwan start-up company who has invented an innovative fast-scan and low-effectiveapproach for 5G mmWave production test along with antenna validation and other test functions in R&D lab. 5G mmWave, operating in high frequency, impose a variety of challenges including testability due to huge path loss from beamforming and difficulty in module-based 5G mmWave over-the-air (OTA) testing. TMYTEK’s mmWave experts have come up with a solution that solves this known problem within the wireless industry.

As a high-profile event bridging the cross-border exchange between Silicon Valley and Taiwan high-tech communities, UTHF has become the flagship event for individuals working in large companies, start-ups as well as entrepreneurs and investors alike. Moreover, it interconnects Silicon Valley, world’s leading innovation hub, with Taiwan’s vibrant new technological advancements to the global stage. It is certainly a conference that should not be missed for anyone looking to deepen understanding of industry trends or to build stronger ties between U.S. and Taiwan technology communities.

About XBeam
XBeam is a 5G mmWave OTA testing solution for production line. With all essential build-in 5G development tools inside, XBeam speeds up production rate by 15 times and saves 80% of costs compared to other solutions in the market. Inside XBeam, there are two essential parts: BBox and UD Box. BBox is a RF probe that is able to steer the beam in an electronic fashion which can be very fast. UD Box is used to bridge the RF and IF domain. Lowering the frequency to IF domain also saves the cost of high frequency cables, connectors, and instruments.
