Custom Communications System Design
The development of a new communications system is a significant undertaking but for the right applications a custom communications system design can offer significant benefits over using an established standard such as GSM, 3G/LTE, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or WiMAX.
Whilst these established standards offer well defined hardware and software specifications to allow user and network equipment to be designed, they are usually aimed at offering a specific cost/performance characteristic depending on the intended market. Plextek has a wealth of experience in the design of radio communications systems that are an exact match to the product design requirements of our customers.
Why would you want a custom communications system design? The typical reasons for this are as follows:-
- No standard offers the performance necessary for the intended environment
- The radio frequency spectrum allocation makes use of a standard unfeasible
- For a simple communications device the standards based solution may be too costly
Plextek has undertaken the design of a number of custom radio systems: amongst which are the following examples:
