LONDON — Nujira Ltd , a start-up that has patented and developed efficient power amplifiers for wireless infrastructure, has sealed its first major OEM deal, and is working with Japan's Sumitomo Electric Industries (SEI) to develop power efficient RF power amplifiers for WiMAX and LTE basestations.

The deal is significant because Japan often leads the way in the cellular industry, and Nujira's High Accuracy Tracking (HAT) technology could play a major role in enabling more energy efficient and environmentally friendly next generation base stations for the Japanese and global cellular markets.

Under the terms of their agreement, announced at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, SEI will develop and market high power RF amplifiers targeted at next generation cellular base stations using Nujira's HAT module.
