TenXc Wireless Inc., an innovator in intelligent radio frequency solutions for enhanced wireless networks, and Coherent Designs Pvt. are to establish a joint development center in Islamabad, Pakistan. The new development center expands TenXc's existing research and development capabilities and will play an integral role in the development of evolving 4G access systems such as mobile WiMAX and 3GPP LTE with combined MIMO/AAS technology.


The center's engineering team will collaborate closely with its TenXc counterparts in Canada on joint design and development of enhanced wireless access subsystems. As an integral part of the company's product development program, the center will primarily focus on the implementation of spatial processing algorithms in DSP and FPGA platforms.

"This is a significant step for us as our business expands internationally and we grow our development strength", said Joe Hickey, president and CEO of TenXc Wireless. "With a rapidly growing wireless industry and early lead in global mobile WiMAX deployments, Pakistan makes a natural choice as the site of our first external development operation outside North America. The demand we're experiencing throughout the region for our current intelligent RF products, demonstrates the leading role countries such as Pakistan are playing on the path to mobile broadband."

Avais Kamal, CEO of Coherent Designs, commented, "TenXc Wireless shares our dedication to being at the forefront of 4G wireless systems development. This collaboration provides a great development opportunity for Coherent Designs' highly dynamic and innovative design team and will enhance our growth and expertise in international development."
