PRESS RELEASE:MicroNetics Unveils CDMA Channel Simulator ( BW)(LA-MICRONETICS)(NOIZ) Micronetics Demonstrates One Box CDMA Channel Simulator and Noise Generator At CTIA Wireless 2000 Business/High-Tech Editors Wireless 2000 NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 28, 2000--Micronetics Wireless, Inc. (NASDAQ/NOIZ) announced today that it will be demonstrating the first integrated AWGN Generator and Multi-Path fading simulator for CDMA applications here at CTIA Wireless 2000 in New Orleans. The unit is targeted at J STD 018 PCS handset testing (1930-1990 MHZ). The two main sources of signal distortion in wireless communications systems are multi-path fading and noise contamination. The CNG-FS integrates into one piece of test equipment, the automatic generation of additive guassian noise for signal to noise ratio measurements and communication channel simulation for inducing various fading and multi-path effects on the transmitted signal. The CNG-FS will offer customers a simplified, dedicated solution that is lower in cost, smaller in size and easier to use than those currently available on the market. Ralph Marrone, Vice President of Micronetics/Equipment, stated, "The J STD 018 PCS model is the first of a suite of products for IS-97, IS-98, J STD 018/019 and wireless local loop applications. Future models will cover other frequency bands or multiple communication bands in one instrument. Having both functions of noise and multi-path simulation combined into one product eliminates the need for external supporting products to complete the measurement. This allows the customer doing test for engineering qualification or field trials to quickly and easily verify their product performance. The CDMA Channel Simulator and Noise Generator is being demonstrated here at the CTIA Wireless 2000 Show, at Booth 2635." Based in Hudson, NH, Micronetics designs, manufactures and market broadband test equipment and components used in the design, testing and manufacturing of cellular, PCS, wireless local loop, home networking and satellite communication equipment through its Micronetics/Equipment Group, and manufactures microwave components and subassemblies primarily used in test equipment, radar, electronic counter-intelligence, wireless communications and electronic simulation applications through its Micronetics/Components Group. Statements in this press release contain forward looking material. Actual results may vary due to a number of risks and uncertainties and should be viewed in conjunction with Micronetics ' Annual Report for its fiscal year ended March 31, 1999. --30--bk/ny* CONTACT: Micronetics Wireless, Inc., New York Richard S.
