RAYSPAN(R) Announces Breakthrough Antenna Solution for LTE Devices

MTM-E(TM) Enables Small, High-Performance Handsets with Longer Battery Life

SAN DIEGO, February 23, 2010 - RAYSPAN(R) Corporation (www.rayspan.com/), the world's only
provider of metamaterial and advanced RF air interface solutions for wireless
communications, today announced the availability of RAYSPAN(R) MTM-E(TM)
(www.rayspan.com/pdfs/LTE_Datasheet.pdf) solutions for long-term
evolution (LTE). MTM-E(TM) is the only antenna solution that can support six
or more bands operating from 698 MHz to 960 MHz in the low band and 1710-2170
MHz as well as 2.6 GHz in the high band without requiring any switching
elements or matching circuits. MTM-E(TM) is the smallest LTE antenna platform
available, meeting the requirements for portable LTE devices such as mobile
phones, laptops, USB dongles, wireless routers and wireless modems. The
RAYSPAN(R) MTM-E(TM) solution is the only antenna technology that offers
integrated LTE, 3G, Bluetooth and GPS all from a single-feed antenna
solution.

"RAYSPAN(R) MTM-E(TM) is uniquely suited to the requirements of wireless
and mobile standards, and especially LTE," stated Gregory Poilasne, VP of
Business Development at RAYSPAN. "We are pleased to be able to offer an LTE
antenna solution that not only leads the industry in performance,
integration, low power consumption and time to market, but is ready for
manufacturers today."

Unlike competing 3D antennas designed for LTE, the MTM-E(TM) antenna is a
simple 2D design in which copper artwork is printed directly on a device's
printed circuit board (PCB) using standard PCB manufacturing techniques. This
enables MTM structures to be built using the finest line widths and spacing
available for antennas. These MTM structures, along with eliminating the need
for switching elements and matching circuits, simplify system integration,
lower power consumption, accelerate time to market and allow for smaller
handset designs.

The RAYSPAN(R) MTM-E(TM) solution complies with the current LTE standard
which calls for multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) technology requiring
two separate antenna structures that operate over the same frequency band, at
the same time, and from the same location. The MTM-E(TM) MIMO antenna
solution exhibits excellent MIMO gain performance with >50% efficiency values
in free-space for handset applications, better than -10dB in near field
isolation, and better than 0.3 far-field envelop correlation coefficient. The
secondary LTE MIMO antenna also supports 3G diversity and GPS applications.

The RAYSPAN(R) MTM-E(TM) solution has been demonstrated for handsets, USB
dongles, and integrated laptop applications as well as customer premise
equipment such as Femtocell devices and is available for license today.
