Xilinx at MILCOM 2007

What: Xilinx Demonstrates Low Power Solutions for Radio Modem and Cryptography at MILCOM 2007

Where: The Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center Kissimmee, Fla. Booth #522

When: October 29 - 31, 2007

SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Xilinx, Inc. (NASDAQ:XLNX) , the world's leading provider of programmable logic solutions, today announced that it will showcase its solutions for Software Defined Radio (SDR) and single chip cryptography based on Xilinx(R) Virtex(TM) FPGAs at MILCOM 2007, to be held at The Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center on October 29 - 31. Xilinx high-performance programmable solutions enable developers to meet demanding SWAP-C goals for next-generation secure systems.

Xilinx MILCOM participation includes the following:

Booth Demonstrations
Small Form Factor Software Defined Radio Development Platform
Demonstration of Xilinx small form factor SDR development platform
acting as a GSM picocell enabling voice and data communications between
standard GSM cell phones. The development platform combines powerful
power optimization tool with reduced board size (6 x 5 inches). The
development platform enables reduction of size, weight, and power for
mobile, handheld, and small form factor SDRs used in military, public
safety and commercial radio applications. The power optimization tool
allows waveform developers to optimize total system power via iterative
power measurements and re-partitioning of algorithms across TI's digital
signal processor and Xilinx FPGAs.

Xilinx-Enabled Small Form Factor Product Showcase
Assortment of handheld communication products enabled by Xilinx low-power
programmable technology including Joint Tactical Radio Systems (JTRS)
handheld, manpack small form fit (HMS) radios, and battery-powered
consumer devices.

Technical Session
Tuesday, October 30, 2007 -- "Reconfigurable Technology for MIMO-OFDM
Systems"
Dr. Raghu Mysore Rao and Dr. Chris Dick, Xilinx
High data rate applications are driving the need for high throughput and
spectrally efficient broadband communication systems. Efficient
modulation schemes and multiple antenna techniques are being explored for
such applications as MIMO-OFDM. OFDM modulation has been adopted by
almost all major broadband wireless standards including 802.11a/g,
DVB-T/DVB-H, 802.16, UWB, etc. MIMO-OFDM is also finding its way into
some newer standards such as 802.11n and 802.16e. The key aspects of all
these standards are reliability and high throughput. Mobility is also a
key factor in some of these standards.
