Key Takeaways
Ceva is positioned to benefit from edge AI adoption with connectivity, sensing and AI technologies.
Its LG partnership combines UWB IP, software and RF technology in a silicon-ready solution.
Global UWB shipments are expected to rise from 597M in 2026 to nearly 1.18B by 2030.
Ceva, Inc. (CEVA - Free Report) is well positioned to benefit from the growing adoption of artificial intelligence at the edge, where devices must connect, sense their surroundings and make real-time decisions. The company’s portfolio of wireless connectivity, sensing and edge AI technologies supports these capabilities across automotive, industrial and consumer applications.
Ceva’s collaboration with LG Electronics strengthens this growth opportunity. The companies are combining Ceva-Waves UWB baseband intellectual property and software with LG’s ultra-wideband radio-frequency technology to offer a complete, silicon-ready solution. The platform is designed for semiconductor and original equipment manufacturers developing next-generation products. A major U.S. semiconductor company has already selected the combined solution, providing early commercial validation.
UWB technology enables highly accurate and secure positioning. Although it is commonly used in digital keys and tracking devices, the technology is expanding into more advanced applications such as secure access, asset tracking, indoor navigation, precise positioning and radar sensing. These capabilities are increasingly important for AI-enabled devices that must understand their physical environment before making intelligent decisions.
Ceva’s next-generation UWB architecture supports the latest IEEE 802.15.4ab standard and offers improved ranging performance in challenging non-line-of-sight environments. It also provides extended range, low-power operation and resistance to interference. When paired with LG’s RF technology, which supports TSMC’s 22-nanometer manufacturing process, the solution can reduce customers’ engineering requirements, lower integration risks and accelerate time to market.
The addressable market is also expanding rapidly. ABI Research expects worldwide UWB device shipments to increase from 597 million in 2026 to nearly 1.18 billion by 2030. This projected growth should create additional licensing and royalty opportunities for Ceva as more semiconductor manufacturers integrate UWB into their chips.
More broadly, Ceva’s connectivity portfolio includes Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, UWB, cellular IoT and 5G. The LG partnership enhances Ceva’s competitive position by expanding its UWB capabilities and supporting the development of intelligent, connected products across multiple end markets.
