AirWalk Communications – Small Cells Technology

Since 2002, AirWalk has been leading the small cell base station market with the most compact radio access network products available. AirWalk’s broad portfolio is designed to help operators improve in-building coverage, offload data and enhance capacity.  In addition to the impressive CDMA product portfolio, AirWalk has responded to the changing market needs through introducing a high-performing, yet very compact, LTE/4G product line.

Always leading in small cell innovation, AirWalk has demonstrated their market influence through consistently delivering high-impact products. In recent years, AirWalk has launched game-changing products such as the EdgePoint PRO, the industry’s first enterprise femtocell; the EdgePoint, the award-winning consumer femtocell; as well as the world’s smallest picocell, the AW100. In addition, AirWalk was the first to demonstrate an LTE picocell and enterprise femtocell.

The surge in high-speed data needed to support mobile videos and applications, has caused network congestion and an unbalanced distribution of data services on the macro network. With AirWalk solutions, service providers can match their network expansion to their need for capacity and coverage. This allows operators to respond to customer-driven growth in an instant and deploy small cells strategically in coverage deficient or high-volume locations.

AirWalk’s femtocells, enterprise femtocells, picocells, metrocells and microcells are all based on a flat IP architecture with distributed control. This flexible architecture enables a scalable technology platform with a rich feature set.

AirWalk’s solution is based on a distinctive approach, the controller functionality is decentralized and tightly integrated with a base station transceiver in one compact device. This approach reduces equipment complexity and latency, and for service providers this translates to increased reliability, simpler installation, lower costs, and a smaller system footprint.
