Atheros Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: ATHR), a global leader in
innovative technologies for wireless and wired communications,
today announced that its mobile Wi-Fi® solution, featuring Align®
1-stream 802.11n technology, is providing the high-performance
wireless connectivity(1) for the new HP TouchPad tablet and HP Pre3
smartphone. The groundbreaking webOS devices feature extensive
multimedia capabilities and Web-based services to provide
compelling application experiences not available on any other
platform.
Key Facts About Atheros Technology:
- The Atheros AR6003 delivers the fastest 1-stream mobile 802.11n
performance with a near-zero impact on the battery life of mobile
devices.
- Atheros' mobile Wi-Fi technology supports dual-band operation
with 40 MHz capabilities, which doubles the wireless throughput of
previous mobile Wi-Fi devices. As more Wi-Fi devices crowd the 2.4
GHz band, dual-band products can leverage more wireless spectrum in
the 5 GHz band for media applications requiring relatively
interference-free bandwidth. This provides consumers with a better
wireless experience on their portable devices.
- The AR6003 is among the smallest and most energy efficient
mobile 802.11n solutions on the market. Built on Atheros' low-power
ROCm® architecture, the highly-integrated solution enables
customers to take full advantage of Wi-Fi features without
compromising the size or battery life of mobile designs.
- To ensure a better wireless experience for mobile customers,
the AR6003 enables superior coexistence with Bluetooth features.
Atheros Universal Wireless Cooperation™ is a suite of innovative
techniques that facilitate greater cooperation between the Wi-Fi
and Bluetooth radios to minimize interference and ensure smooth
operation of both wireless features.
- Atheros is demonstrating its mobile Wi-Fi solutions this week
at the 2011 Mobile World Congress. Its private meeting suite is
located in the Fira de Barcelona (Hall 1, Stand G39).
