mmWave Educational and Developer Kit
Developer Kit Key Features and Benefits
The best way to learn new technology is to get hands-on experience by operating it step-by-step. The Developer Kit is not only suitable for education and academics but R&D for prototype development as well. This is because it can thoroughly evaluate the hardware, software algorithm, and array antenna. The Developer kit is well recognized and has been adopted by many universities and development centers. The kit offers the best practice for the research and development of mmWave technology.

World’s First Beamforming Experiment Solution for Developers

The 5G mmWave Developer Kit can be used for a variety of 5G mmWave beamforming research and development projects. The BBoard with AAkit and PLO can be a beam generator that emits beams at multiple angles. A COCO antenna with an amplifier and a power detector, on the other hand, can receive and detect signals.
Communication System Prototyping
By connecting UD Box with baseband instruments, developers and researchers can conduct more 5G mmWave communication R&D projects.
- Compatible with most SDRs: NI USRP/ Xilinx FPGA
- Beam tracking algorithm development
- Beam management implementation
