TITLE: Open Base Station Architecture Initiative
The Open Base Station Architecture Initiative (OBSAI) is a forum
of 110 telecommunications companies that have jointly created
open specifications for both hardware and software modules to
enable interoperability at the base station subsystem level.
OBASI standardized solutions are intended to allow for much
shorter product development time, thereby reducing costs and
accelerating the delivery of next generation base station
designs. Xilinx has released a reference design which is fully
compliant with the OBSAI (RP3) specifications. Market analysts
indicate that the worldwide semiconductor market for wireless
base stations is expected to more than double in the next five
years from $2.7 billion in 2003.
