Japan, Jan. 27 -- NEC Corporation announced the development of a high-efficiency, compact Power Amplifier Module (PAM) for the sub-6GHz band, designed for integration into 5G base station Radio Units (RUs).PAMs are electronic components that amplify signals for long-distance radio transmission, and their power consumption accounts for approximately 75% of the total power consumed by an RU. By integrating this high-efficiency PAM into RUs, NEC aims to reduce device power consumption and size, thereby contributing to overall power savings in 5G networks and reduced operational costs for telecommunication carriers.NEC plans to incorporate this PAM into new RUs scheduled for release in the first half of fiscal year 2026 and also envisions a glo...
