East Boston, MA (PRWEB) June 22, 2012

Acoustic Technology Inc. (ATI Systems) of East Boston, MA was awarded a half a million dollar contract for the design and installation of a state of the art wireless public address system for the GSA – PBS Heartland region, Kansas City, MO.

ATI was selected based on providing superior voice and tonal clarity. In addition, the new systems strength is that it allows for a variety of notification methods to be utilized such as text messages, telephone alerts, email and desktop alerts. The system interfaces easily to the existing internal analog phone system for activating from any phone. This system will provide real-time, dynamic information to everyone on the property and in the immediate vicinity during emergencies.

The new system features 14 of ATIs Indoor Speaker Units (ISU) with over 1000 2 watt ceiling speakers for indoor coverage and over 50 15 watt horn speakers for outdoor coverage and 2 control stations for activating, controlling and monitoring the entire system.

The two control stations will be used to activate, test and monitor the ISU alerting units. Through tone alerts, pre-recorded voice messages and live public address, everyone affected by an emergency are immediately notified how to respond. The key advantage to the ATI system is the companys proprietary acoustic modeling that ensures clear and precise sound audibility and voice intelligibility throughout the facility.

The central control stations are configured with ATI Systems proprietary MassAlert

NXP Unleashes Multi-Stage Variable Gain LNAs for Wireless Base Stations

Eindhoven, Netherlands (PRWEB) June 18, 2012

NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ: NXPI) today introduced the BGU706x series of multi-stage base station LNAs with variable gain featuring the industrys lowest noise figure of 0.9 dB for a receive chain in silicon. The architecture of the LNA is based on the integration of a very low-noise LNA with a bypass function followed by an analog-controlled variable gain amplifier (VGA). These BGU706x low-noise amplifiers deliver high linearity, while saving up to 80 percent in component count.

With a high RF input overdrive of 10-15 dBm, the BGU706x base-station LNAs provide exceptional ruggedness, and make use of NXPs silicon germanium carbon (SiGe:C) BiCMOS process technology for outstanding performance in high-frequency applications. NXP will showcase the BGU705x fixed gain LNAs and the BGU706x variable gain LNAs this week at the IMS2012 International Microwave Symposium in Montreal (booth 607).

Wireless infrastructure today faces a challenge as mobile data communications rapidly overtake voice communications. With its very low noise figure, our new multi-stage LNAs enable larger cell coverage, helping operators realize significant CAPEX and OPEX savings by reducing the total number of base stations required, said Kees Schetters, director of marketing, wireless infrastructure, NXP Semiconductors. By simplifying design-in, the LNAs also enable engineers to focus more on pushing the performance limits of their applications to achieve a significant competitive edge.
