It was not immediately clear on Thursday what the working model that ARM plans to show at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona would look like or who would supply the parts.

Google and ARM declined to comment on the report.

Deutsche Telekom's T-Mobile and Taiwan's High Tech Computer Corp (HTC) <2498.TW> have said that they plan to offer phones based on the Android platform this year.

Google is also bidding for wireless spectrum in the United States in a move that pits it against entrenched carriers like AT&T and Verizon Wireless .

Research firm Strategy Analytics has estimated that Android will be in 2 percent of smartphones this year.
