Imagination Technologies' UCC (universal communications coprocessor) family includes licensable coprocessors targeted at baseband decode for communication applications.
They contain configurable signal processing blocks that perform functions common to most radio standards and a specialised programmable processor supporting demodulation and modulation functions.
UCC Mobile is a UCC family member specifically targeting battery-powered receivers for multistandard applications such as mobile TV and digital radio.
It is available as licensable IP from Imagination Technologies.
UCC is already shipping in mobile consumer products for the DAB and T-DMB markets and has been licensed for use in future DVB-H products.
UCC is also shipping in DVB-T devices.
The conventional approach to designing a high-speed digital receiver uses dedicated hardware to achieve the required real-time signal processing functions.
UCC Mobile provides a programmable software defined radio (SDR) platform with the signal processing capacity for the most demanding of mobile receiver standards.
UCC Mobile performs all the demodulation processing, from a digitised IF, low IF, or zero IF input to error-corrected data output.
As an example of its capability, UCC Mobile can demodulate a DVB-H signal at any datarate and in any mode.
UCC supports application areas including broadcast, digital radio, digital TV, mobile TV, analogue TV, portable TV, wireless LAN and mobile communications.
