High-Performance SerDes Enable The 5G Wireless Edge
By Frank Ferro - 14 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

Investment at the core of the global internet is red hot. The number of hyperscale data centers jumped to 700 worldwide at the end of 2021, and with more than 300 in the pipeline, should rise to over 1000 by 20241. In the span of five years, total hyperscale data centers will have doubled. And as the raw number shoots up, more powerful compute and networking hardware is rapidly being deployed, ... » read more

What Will Be The Killer App For 5G? Time To Place Your Bets
By Panch Chandrasekaran - 10 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

5G is here. But where will its capabilities soar first? Here are my guesses for where the breakthroughs could occur along with factors that might hold it back. 1. Supply Chain. The world’s 5,300+ plus cargo ships carry 90% of the world’s freight and can collectively hold 1.97 billion deadweight tons of cargo. 5G—delivered through private networks or secure slices of public networks—c... » read more

Autoencoder-Based Characterisation Of Passive IEEE 802.11 Link Level Measurements
By Fraunhofer IIS/EAS - 10 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Wireless networks are indispensable in today’s industrial manufacturing and automation. Due to harsh signal propagation conditions as well as co-existing wireless networks, transmission failures resulting in severe application malfunctions are often difficult to diagnose. Remote wireless monitoring systems are extremely useful tools for troubleshooting such failures.However, the completeness ... » read more

The Top Five Areas For 5G Improvements
By Frank Schirrmeister - 26 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 0

A recent article by TECHnalysis's Bob O'Donnell sparked some thoughts about the critical aspects in which 5G faces improvement needs. They include coverage, cost, power, killer applications, and global ecosystems. It will be a fascinating race over the next eight to ten years, and many decisions between the evolution of 5G versus a transition to 6G are much closer than one might think. I’v... » read more

Electrically connected spin-torque oscillators array for 2.4 GHz WiFi band transmission and energy harvesting
By Technical Paper Link - 27 Jul, 2021 - Comments: 0

Researchers at the National University of Singapore and Tohoku University developed a device that uses spin-torque oscillators (STOs) to harvest energy from 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signals and wirelessly power an LED without need for a battery.   Technical Paper Link: Abstract "The mutual synchronization of spin-torque oscillators (STOs) is critical for communication, energy harvesting ... » read more

Smart Home Device Communication In The Era Of Hyperconnectivity
By Frank Schirrmeister - 24 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

In our increasingly hyperconnected world, a fascinating area to watch is what I would call "the last 100 feet, give or take." There are many standards like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, or Thread used for IoT device connectivity. There are very active discussions about how our smart devices should be allowed to talk to other resources, like our neighbor's Wi-Fi. In the IoT's municipal and industria... » read more

Hybrid System-Level Test For RF SiP
By Koji Miyauchi - 08 Jun, 2021 - Comments: 0

In recent years, the proliferation of the IoT has focused attention on low-power-wireless applications. IoT modules incorporating functions such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) transceivers, MCUs, and power-management circuitry are becoming system-in-package (SiP) and even one-chip devices. Such devices increase the demand for a mass-production test environment that can measure them in a short ti... » read more

Potential For 5G In Daily Life
By Krishnan Shrinivasan - 20 May, 2021 - Comments: 0

The excitement around the rollout of 5G technology could not be more palpable. We see this next-generation technology in news headlines and commercials, with promises to usher in the next wave of internet capabilities, speeds, and frictionless internet access. Let’s look at what 5G is and how semiconductor advancements are driving this new technology. What is 5G? 5G technology can be su... » read more

Technology Access Discriminates
By Brian Bailey - 22 Apr, 2021 - Comments: 3

I try not to get on a soap box in my blogs, but I hope you will allow me to express a concern that I see building and the projection of an unintended outcome. I am talking about who does and does not have access to technology. Over time, this divide can cause a further division based on geography, income level, or some other factor. The ramifications of it are not realized until it is too late.... » read more
