This Press Release really is really confusing.
Docomo, as in “Japan Mobile Operator DoCoMo” has developed a MIMO LTE chip. I can understand why LG is doing so, but Docomo?
Do they really plan to sell the chips to Mobile phone manufactures?
I can only think of one reason, which is that Docomo wanted to push the LTE market. Developing a chipset was probably the best solution.
This excerpt is the perfect example of “Too much information”:
In the new chip, which is made with 65-nanometer processing, the circuits have been further optimized, particularly by eliminating redundant circuits for computationally complex processes such as MIMO-signal detection and error-correction decoding
Do I really care about the complexity of the process?
