Pinyon Technology Introduces AirWire WiMAX Tri-Band Antenna
PRNewswire
March 16,
2010
- New antenna supports the WiMAX market around the world
RENO, Nevada - Pinyon Technologies, developer of unique antenna
solutions based upon its patented AirWire® technology, today announced
its WiMAX Tri-Band antenna. The AirWire WiMAX Tri-Band antennas cover
all of the licensed spectrum profiles for WiMAX enabling OEM
manufacturers to outfit their CPE for any WiMAX market around the world
with the same antenna. AirWire WiMAX Tri-Band antennas provide polar
diversity, adding an additional degree of antenna diversity to a
wireless system equipped with MIMO spatial diversity.

"Pinyon's
patented resonant slot AirWire antenna is specifically designed to
operate in noisy environments through polarization diversity," said
Debashis Bagchi, Pinyon Technologies CEO. "Polarization diversity allows
AirWire to capture horizontally polarized signals which most existing
antennas ignore."
Pinyon's AirWire WiMAX Tri-Band antennas can be
customized for various form factors. These antennas cover the WiMAX
spectrum profiles of 2.3 GHz, 2.5 GHz and 3.5 GHz and maintain high gain
across all the band profiles. They can also accommodate any connector
type.
Pinyon's AirWire™ WiMAX Tri-Band antenna polar
diversity works to stabilize the link between the CPE and the WiMAX base
station. Most collinear and dipole antennas, commonly used on CPE, only
transmit and receive vertically polarized signals. AirWire WiMAX
antenna's polar diversity uniquely overcomes this common shortcoming by
detecting both horizontally and vertically polarized signals. Urban and
indoor building environments produce horizontally polarized signal
reflections that collinear or dipole antennas completely ignore.
Ignoring these horizontally polarized reflections reduces the chances of
establishing a stable radio link resulting in substantially reducing
throughput.
About Pinyon Technologies
Headquartered in Reno, Nev., Pinyon Technologies develops, designs and
commercially sells antenna solutions based upon a unique, patented
AirWire technology. Pinyon's unique AirWire technology is designed for
WiFi, WiMax, Bluetooth, UWB and mobile applications. Pinyon's robust
AirWire technology is adaptable to other wireless applications as the
technology is scalable to multiple frequencies. AirWire is well suited
for applications that require high gain in a noisy multipath
environment. Pinyon's business model consists of licensing as well as
manufacturing and selling antennas as end products based on the
application. AirWire enhances applications that require the following
features: high efficiency to maximize gain, customizable for precise
radiation pattern control, real-time control for beam steering, current
driven for scalability, and intrinsic band pass filtering to minimize
noise. For more information, visit www.pinyontech.com.
