BBoard Beamforming Board for mmWave Research up to 39 GHz
TMYTEK has introduced the BBoard Beamforming Board, a four-channel platform designed for research and education in 5G mmWave technologies. Operating at 28 GHz and 39 GHz, this modular system enables hands-on exploration of beamforming techniques at frequencies critical to modern mobile communications infrastructure.
Technical Specifications
- Frequency Bands: 28 GHz and 39 GHz
- Architecture: Four independent RF channels
- Standards Compliance: 5G NR FR2 (millimeter-wave frequency range 2)
- Control Capabilities: Integrated phase and amplitude control across antenna elements
- Design: Modular platform enabling flexible system configurations
Applications
- 5G/B5G Development: Prototyping and validation of beamforming algorithms for fifth-generation and beyond-fifth-generation wireless systems
- Educational Laboratories: Teaching mmWave propagation, antenna arrays, and spatial signal processing
- SATCOM Research: Exploration of satellite communication beamforming techniques at millimeter-wave frequencies
- Antenna Characterization: Measurement and optimization of phased array performance, beam patterns, and gain profiles
- Defense & Aerospace: Radar and sensing systems requiring advanced beam steering capabilities
The dual-frequency capability across 28 GHz and 39 GHz allows evaluation of beamforming performance across multiple spectrum allocations used in contemporary and next-generation wireless deployments. bq-microwave distributes the TMYTEK BBoard platform in Europe and provides technical documentation and application support for organizations integrating this system into their development workflows.
