Our Technology

Replacing electrons with photons

5G is Here. This technology will bring the world – people and devices – closer together, revolutionizing mobile telecommunications as we know it. Veluxsys is at the cutting edge of making this a reality by being the first company in the US to leverage RF-over-Fiber technology and photonic beamforming to reduce the cost of future 5G deployments.

As service providers increasingly turn to millimeter wave carrier frequencies for 5G utilization, traditional electronic beamforming is turning out to be restrictive and costly. Integrated microwave photonics (IMWP) can circumvent these problems by performing signal processing and beamforming entirely in the optical domain. At Veluxsys, we are actively developing and prototyping various integrated photonic architectures to enable photonic beamforming.

The result? An entirely new generation of better radio system topologies that promote significant cost reductions all while supporting large-scale 5G rollouts.

Challenges We Face

Although some RFoF systems on the market today can meet the performance of conventional coaxial cables, they are larger and significantly more expensive. Future RFoF designs must maintain a comparable size, weight and cost package.

The deployment of 5G will require a significant increase in the throughput of fronthaul networks that run from centralised Base Band Units (BBU) to Remote Radio Heads (RRH) miles away. Existing network architectures must be optimized and redesigned for antenna arrays to begin fielding high numbers of dedicated fiber wavelengths to each RRH.

As 5G frequencies extend above 6 Ghz and wireless data bandwidth requirements scale rapidly, network operators and service providers find themselves forced into single vendor solutions. This restricts innovation from a vendor standpoint and may not allow service providers to achieve the optimized hardware configurations they need to suit their unique needs.
