5G/6G

5G is the next generation of connectivity that will power businesses, homes, and cities. It provides the ability to combine communication links and technologies in new ways and leverage new bands of spectrum, such as the powerful mmWave bands, which can carry huge quantities of information.

Getac has announced the addition of two powerful devices to its range of sub-6GHz 5G Windows rugged devices – the S410 semi rugged laptop and F110 fully rugged tablet.

pSemi, a Murata company focused on semiconductor integration, announces the production readiness of two new high-linearity switches targeted for the latest 5G wireless infrastructure and massive MIMO base station deployments.

The downside to 5G Massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (mMIMO) is the increased power requirements of the technology compared to previous generations of Radio Access Technology (RAT).

3G, the once revolutionary network that ushered in a new era of mobile connectivity usage, is coming to a close.  As telecoms companies across major economies begin shutting down their 3G coverage, with the US, India and China having now largely completed their process, and two of the UK's 'Big Four' mobile service pledging to end its coverage in the UK by 2023, the network enters its twilight years.  

NTT DOCOMO has announced that it has succeeded in what it believes to be the world's first trial of redirecting millimetre-band 28 GHz radio waves coming from inside a building to the foot of the building outdoors by bending the radio waves with a film-shaped transmissive metasurface attached to a window surface. The trial was conducted from October to November 2022 at their R&D Centre in Yokosuka, Japan, aiming at the realisation of advanced...

Low energy consumption and space-saving size will contribute to the realisation of high-quality 5G connectivity indoors.

NTT DOCOMO, has announced that in collaboration with YKK AP it has launched a demonstration test to verify the radio-wave penetration characteristics of signal-permeable windows made with a light, porous material called aerogel, aiming to improve indoor reception of external radio waves while maintaining the insulation benefits of windows.
