5G Connects networks to machines and things
5G Technology World interviewed Keysight’s Roger Nichols on what’s coming soon for 5G and which 6G might become.
5G research: It’s now about IoT
While talk of 6G has already started, 5G has moved into applied research. Students at WPI work with Professor Alex Wyglinski to connect IoT devices and vehicles to 5G networks.
Video: “Ideal” switch cuts signal losses
A MEMS RF switch from Menlo Micro helps eliminate the decision of whether to design a semiconductor or mechanical switch into your circuits. When designing a switch into a circuit, you’ve probably been faced with a tradeoff. Semiconductor switches are fast and live long, but they have relatively high RON that can produce unacceptable losses.…
Video: Panel highlights Open RAN technology and policy
Representatives from Open RAN suppliers and users explain how how government policy can affect the ongoing development and deployment of 5G networks.
More than wireless: 5G deployment needs power and fiber
In this video, 5G Technology World interviews Corning’s Michael O’Day about composite cables use to deliver both power and light to 5G small cells.
Video: OIF launches 224 Gbps project preview
Engineers will once again roll up their sleeves and figure out how to increase data rates because “we need fatter channels.”
Video: 5G NR-Light will serve sensors, wearables, and IoT
5G Technology World interviews Qualcomm’s Danny Tseng on what to expect from 3GPP Release 17.
BBox: Beam steering for mmWave testing
The BBox from TMYTEK lets you control a signal’s amplitude and phase under software control. Use it to test antennas, phones, small cells, and measure material properties when subjected to mmWave signals. Testing beamforming antennas, user equipment, small cells, and other items requires that you have a way to create a steered signal. Taiwan-based TMY…
5G moves into production, causes test issues
5G Technology World talks with Teradyne’s Jeorge Hutarte, who explains components and over-the-air production test of 5G components. 5G phones, base stations, IoT, and other devices have moved into production, but like everything else, 5G’s mmWave frequencies bring new challenges there, just as they have with design and deployment. For starters, production facilities don’t what…
