[Asia Economy Reporter Donghoon Jeong] Doosan has entered the 5G antenna module business by partnering with the US company Movandi.

Doosan announced on the 3rd that it has delivered Movandi's beamforming technology-applied 5G antenna modules for the first time to the domestic wireless repeater company FRATEC.

Beamforming is a technology that creates antenna beams in a specific direction to strongly transmit and receive signals in that direction. Modules equipped with this technology serve as key components of 5G wireless repeaters.

Movandi is a company possessing 5G millimeter-wave radio frequency (RF) related technology. Utilizing this technology minimizes signal interference between users and enables transmission of 5G signals in desired directions, thereby improving communication quality.

Last year, Doosan secured exclusive rights from Movandi for manufacturing and selling 5G antenna modules and established a 5G antenna module production line at its Iksan plant in Jeonbuk.

Doosan plans to develop and release 26GHz and 39GHz antenna modules within this year in collaboration with Movandi to enter overseas markets such as China and Europe. Additionally, the company intends to expand its business areas to include IoT devices for specialized networks based on millimeter waves and wireless access network radio modules.

Yoo Seung-woo, head of Doosan's Electronics BG, said, "Starting with the 5G antenna module business, we will continuously secure opportunities related to 5G businesses."
