The Odyssey 8500 chipset will be adapted to support the XG-PHS standard and Willcom's advanced requirements for the Japanese marketplace.
Willcom and Wavesat are to collaborate on XG-PHS technology with the goal to accelerate the development, adoption and deployment of XG-PHS based broadband wireless solutions in Japan The collaboration between the two companies will leverage Wavesat's revolutionary multimode Odyssey 8500 4G chipset, providing access to multiple broadband wireless technologies including XG-PHS, WiMAX Wave2, Wi-Fi and seamless migration to LTE
The joint development effort will enable Willcom to deploy the ground breaking XG-PHS network on schedule, offering high performance including 256 QAM operations.
XG-PHS is an OFDMA standard providing advanced network services and enhanced data speeds.

Mini-PCI card hosts WiMAX CPE development
Mini-PCI board provides advanced WiMAX features such as support for UL subchannelisation which significantly improves performance for indoor modems.
Chipset enables nomadic WiMAX Express Card
Card also offers backward compatibility with IEEE802.16-2004 fixed WiMAX systems, enabling these devices to be seamlessly introduced into existing networks.
It will be initially deployed in Japan by Willcom.
"We decided to work with Wavesat to develop XG-PHS chipset and solutions because of their unique multimode architecture", said Yoshioki Chika, Executive Vice President, Willcom.
"This strategic partnership highlights Willcom's commitment to providing the most innovative and world-class broadband wireless technology, and we look forward to a long term relationship with Wavesat".
"We are honoured to collaborate with Willcom towards accelerating XG-PHS deployment in Japan", added Raj Singh, Wavesat's President and CEO.
"We are excited to bring to market solutions that offer multimode capabilities which can easily be adapted to support today's Broadband Wireless technologies, and offer a seamless migration path to future 4G standards".
"Wavesat's ability to support multiple OFDMA protocols is very promising".
"The XG-PHS standard being implemented by Willcom is an innovative example in one of the most sophisticated telecommunications marketplaces in the world", said Adlane Fellah, CEO and founder of Maravedis, a leading wireless broadband analyst firm.
"This design win further validates Wavesat's multimode strategy and should contribute to position them for leadership in the 4G semiconductor market".
The Odyssey 8500 chipset from Wavesat is powered by a unique 4G multicore architecture incorporating multiple ultra low power DSPs, offering flexibility, high performance and low power consumption, without any tradeoff.
The SoC manufactured using advanced embedded DRAM technology requires no external memory, thus saving customers valuable real estate, cost and power consumption for very small-form-factor portable and mobile applications such as wireless USB dongle, mobile handsets and other consumer electronic devices.
