BlackBerry maker Research In Motion said on Thursday it has acquired Paratek Microwave Inc, a company whose adaptive radio-frequency technology improves mobile-handset call quality and battery life.
The Canadian smartphone maker did not disclose financial details of the purchase of privately held Paratek, which is based in New Hampshire and funded by a string of venture capital investors including Polaris Ventures and Europe’s biggest chip maker, STMicroelectronics.
