The latest symposium took a turn toward business use cases at the expense of the usual technical talks, with speakers saying that use cases should drive the technology. Through most of 5G’s development, conference topics generally focused on the technologies such as the radio and network technologies. With much of that settled, talk moved to…
Marki adds four models to diplexer line
Four new models cover DC to 26.5 GHz at different crossover frequencies.
Six design considerations for local data storage
Engineers must consider these design tradeoffs when choosing data storage for embedded, IoT, and network equipment. 5G’s higher data rates adds another factor to the mix.
Filters keep RF signals in line
In a video interview with 5G Technology World, Resonant’s Mike Eddy explains how RF filters keep wanted signals in an interference out. It’s all in the physics. As bandwidth gets crowded, governments auction more spectrum to accommodate our insatiable demand for data. While 3G used frequencies around 1 GHz, 4G expanded to around 2 GHz.…
5G and AIoT will need new semiconductor materials
Technologies such as gate all around FETs and neuromorphic analog memory will increase speed and reduce power consumption in the chiplets that control artificial intelligence of things devices and systems. While 5G provides improved speed to consumers, it’s the industrial, automotive, infrastructure, and IoT applications that make 5G stand out. These applications will need IoT…
Radar sensor integrates antenna and signal processing
The BGT60LTR11AIP from Infineon Technologies lets you add a 60-GHz motion sensor to embedded devices.
Measure in-band and adjacent channel power
Spectrum analyzers let you see how distortion can affect transmitted RF signals.
How it works: Base station on a chip
EdgeQ is sampling what it calls a “base station on a chip” that handles high-PHY through baseband
Wi-Fi 6 RF front ends combine functions
The low-power QFP4526 and high-power QFP4568 bring switches, filters, and amplifiers to Wi-Fi 8 (802.11ax) designs. Wi-Fi 6 (IEEE 802.11ax) access points, routers, gateways, customer-premise devices, and IoT devices need amplifiers to boost signal power to its final levels. The QFP4526 and QFP4568 front-end modules from Qorvo operate at 3.7 V and 5 V power…
EM simulation is crucial to 5G wireless design
5G Technology World spoke with Jonathan Oakley of Dassault Systemes on how the company’s electromagnetic simulation software helps engineers design and evaluate antennas for smartphones and IoT devices.
