The company’s product suite includes a complete 3GPP Compliant 5G channel coding IP solution that delivers reduced latency and power consumption for the most critical components of 5G NR, whilst meeting all the throughput and error correction targets. AccelerComm’s IP packages can be quickly integrated and flexibly delivered for use in custom silicon (ASIC), programmable hardware (FPGA) or as software solutions, covering all use cases within current standards

“For 5G to meet its full potential it is critical that the whole ecosystem works together to maximize the benefits from this technology, solve issues and combine to ensure that applications and services meet their full potential,” said Rob Barnes, VP of Sales & Marketing at AccelerComm. “We are delighted to have been selected as one of fifteen 5G application and infrastructure pioneers and innovators and are excited to be involved in this prestigious program.”

Said Jim Brisimitzis, general partner of the 5G Open Innovation Lab, “Our program set out to develop the software ecosystem for 5G and edge computing.
