PHYTunes, a leader in connectivity at the edge enabling wireless-wireline convergence, today announced it has been awarded a National Science Foundation (NSF) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Grant to accelerate research and development of technology to improve connectivity for everyone by enabling widespread 5G coverage at significantly lower cost and substantial energy savings in a compressed timeframe.
The technology will be used to solve the indoor 5G problem and accelerate 5G deployment and ubiquitous 5G availability in both urban and rural areas. This will have major positive ramifications in terms of bridging the digital divide across different geographical areas and across different socioeconomic groups, by bringing new opportunities for telework, tele-education, telehealth, and telemedicine to traditionally underserved and unrepresented communities.
Phase I research will address critical technical issues related to the overall feasibility and performance of cellular subscriber line (CSL) technology with the development of a detailed simulation platform and network-side and customer-side prototype units using existing radio-frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) and field-programmable gate array (FPGA) components. The project will allow mid-band and high-band cellular signals to be carried over existing twisted-pair copper wires, as well as coaxial, fiber and Ethernet wires, to enable the delivery of 5G-based services across barriers that signals delivered over the air from a tower cannot penetrate.
“The SBIR Phase I project has the potential to accelerate development towards a low-cost, low-energy solution that solves the problem of extending 5G coverage to the interior of homes and buildings,” said Dr. Akula Aneesh Reddy, Chief Scientist of PHYTunes. “We are proud to be working with the National Science Foundation to further develop our work around wireless wireline convergence and look forward to working with our service provider partners to further validate our work in a real-world network environment.”
OCI’s built-in security, high availability, and superior price-performance helps customers around the world with their automation and service management requirements without having to worry about capacity constraints.

“Our goal is to offer customers the choices they need to enable faster, more accurate, and more efficient ways of delivering service innovations across the globe,” stated Margaret Lee, senior vice president and general manager, Digital Service and Operations Management, BMC. “Partnering with Oracle supports our multicloud strategy to deliver superior performance at the right price point for an exceptional customer experience. We’re excited to bring leading-edge IT service management, employee self-service, IT operations, and AIOps capabilities to IT teams through OCI.”
The BMC Helix portfolio provides customers with an intelligence-enriched, integrated service and operations management platform to enable faster service resolution combined with deeper visibility into critical enterprise operations. By making the BMC Helix platform available through the Oracle Exadata Cloud Service on OCI, BMC Helix will provide superior performance and incidence response rates for key business processes.
“The power of the BMC Helix platform and Oracle’s next-generation cloud infrastructure and database cloud services provides our joint customers with extremely performant, reliable, and secure services for critical IT processes,” said Dave Profozich, senior vice president, ISV Ecosystem, Oracle. “We’re excited to partner with BMC so that organizations across the globe can run Oracle Database workloads in the cloud with Exadata Cloud Service.”
As a customer of Oracle Exadata Cloud Service running on OCI, BMC will jointly market and sell the BMC Helix solutions with Oracle. BMC is a member of the Oracle PartnerNetwork (OPN) and an ISV Accelerator partner. The BMC Helix ITSM solution will be available in the Oracle Cloud Marketplace, where customers can search for available applications and services to find the best-suited business solutions for their organization.
