Barcelona 9-February-2006 – Fractus, the fractal antenna technology pioneer, has worked with CSR, the wireless technology provider and world leader in Bluetooth connectivity, to develop an example design of a Bluetooth/WiFi Combo card that provides VoIP and Bluetooth calls running at the same time inside a mobile handset device.
The Bluetooth/WiFi Combo card design brings together two Fractus Slim Reach Xtend™ antennas, and CSR’s Unifi-1 Portable WiFi chip and BlueCore 4 ROM Bluetooth chip on a single card that delivers a very small, high performance co-existent design.
“We evaulated antennas from different developers worldwide and found the Fractus antennas to offer the best value and size for our customers – performance, price and technical support,” said CSR VP Marketing Simon Finch.
“The CSR Combo card highlights the flexibility of Fractus antenna technology to enable a 2.4 GHz diversity system within a handset powered by CSR,” said Fractus Short-Range Wireless Division Director Tim Hillison.
CSR is making the Bluetooth/WiFi Combo card example design available to key customers of request and will demo this solution during 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona, February 13-
16th.
Fractus Slim Reach Xtend antennas ship worldwide in the millions. They are used for a wide range of devices from mobile handsets, to stereo Bluetooth® headsets. Fractus has a variety of solutions for short-range wireless communications within all mobile devices covering the Zigbee, GPS, Bluetooth, WiFi and UMTS standards.
