Enea Extends License Agreement with ZTE for 3G Handsets
October 2, 2007
Sweden's Enea, a provider of network software and services, announced
that China's ZTE Corporation, a provider of telecommunications equipment
and network solutions, has selected Enea’s flagship real-time
operating system OSE 5 for its 3G mobile phone chip-sets.
“After evaluating several options we have come to the conclusion
that OSE 5 is the only real-time operating system that can help
us shorten time to market and reduce the overall system cost,”
says Cai Youfang, Director of ZTE’s mobile chip-set division.
“OSE 5 is clearly the most proven and complete real-time operating
system in the market for 3G handsets.”
OSE is a family of compact, high-performance deterministic real-time
operating systems. Optimized for mobile computing applications,
the OSE family addresses all aspects of low-cost, feature-rich 3G
handset design, from DSP baseband processing to RISC application
processing. The OSE family delivers fully-preemptive, event-driven,
real-time response. It also features a power management system that
extends battery life, a crash-safe file system with flash support,
and dynamic download capability, which enhances mobile device flexibility
by enabling new applications to be downloaded to systems as they
operate in the field.
“We are very pleased that ZTE has decided to extend the license
agreement with Enea for its 3G mobile phone chip-set solutions to
also include our OSE 5 real-time operating system,” says Marcus
Hjortsberg, vice president Asia sales. “With this agreement,
Enea will provide a complete operating system solution to ZTE mobile
phone chip-sets addressing both the base band processing on the
DSP as well as the application operating system running on the ARM
processor.”
