The demonstration uses hardware-in-the-loop and compares a wireless receiver’s signal processing to traditional methods.
Applications
Spirent completes Open RAN testing with three functions
The addition of a “wraparound” distributed unit test product for distributed units augments previous test suites for radio units and centralized units. Open radio-access networks (Open RAN) disaggregate a base station’s baseband unit (BBU) — the unit between the antenna and network core — into three parts: Radio unit, RU or O-RU; Distributed unit, DU…
Tiny, medical sensors feature large measurement range, accuracy, resistance to environmental effects
NewTek medical sensors withstand the effects of autoclave cycles used to sterilize medical equipment prior to surgical procedures or other medical uses. According to the Centers for Disease Control, steam sterilization, as accomplished in an autoclave, is the most widely used and dependable method of sanitizing critical medical equipment as a part of infection control. […]
Four-channel RF transceiver covers cellular and Wi-Fi frequency bands
Arctic Semiconductor announced it has rebranded from SiTune Corporation to Arctic Semiconductor, to emphasize its focus on 5G RF products. The company has started shipping its first 5G silicon chipset, IceWings, in mass production. IceWings has already been chosen by several customers for its programmable, high-performance, and low-power features. Arctic has been developing IceWings and other 5G chipsets…

MWC demo highlights near-future satellite internet
Mobile World Congress 2023 will feature a demonstration of satellite internet services by SES. On December 16, 2022, a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carried two SES O3b mPower satellites into Earth’s orbit. EE World was there for the launch. At Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2023 (February 27 to March 2) SES will perform a live…
DSP core moves toward 5G-Advanced
The CEVA-XC20 DSP architecture boosts computing power and reduces energy consumption through vector threading.
Low-power PLL generates mmWave radar signals
This week, at the 2023 International Solid-State Circuits Conference, imec presents a novel digitally calibrated charge-pump (CP) phase-locked loop (PLL) that can generate high-quality frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) signals for mmWave radars at low power consumption. The novel PLL is a critical building block for future short-range automotive (in-cabin and out-of-cabin) and industrial (e.g., on-cobot sensing)…
Wireless platform tests 5G RedCap IoT communications
Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced its new E7515R solution based on its 5G Network Emulation Solutions platform, a streamlined network emulator specifically designed for protocol, radio frequency (RF), and functional testing of all cellular internet of things (CIoT) technologies, including RedCap. The E7515R expands Keysight’s 5G Network Emulation Solutions portfolio, the industry’s most robust, which is used in mobile device…
Low-PIM antennas bring 5G LTE indoors
Pasternack has just introduced an innovative series of low-PIM, in-building DAS antennas that meet the most demanding low-PIM requirements for 5G and LTE/4G bands.
