'Visible Things' platform could enhance the IoT
Avnet Memec announced the launch of the Visible ThingsTM platform for the development of IoT systems and applications. Targeting a wide range of industrial markets, Visible Things is a highly flexible and comprehensive evaluation and development platform for edge-to-enterprise IoT projects. The platform delivers tested, proven, secure and integrated hardware and embedded software to connect smart sensors and embedded devices via gateway solutions...
Tunable balance network supports all LTE bands
Nanoelectronics research center imec and Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) present a frequency division duplex (FDD) balance network, capable of dual-frequency impedance tuning for all LTE bands in the 0.7-to-1GHz range. When integrated into an electrical-balance duplexer (EBD), it enables FDD duplexing with antennas in real-world environments, paving the way to high-performance, low-power, low-cost solutions for mobile communication.
IoT-connected bike lock enables real time monitoring
Utilising Dutch KPN’s LORA technology, Mobilock is the world’s first bike lock which is connected to the IoT. The bike sharing system uses a smartphone app to open the lock and can now monitor and localise all its bikes in real time, where-ever and whenever they are, without using GPS.
Accelerating genome analysis
An international team of scientists, led by researchers from A*STAR's Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS) and the Bioinformatics Institute (BII), have developed SIFT 4G (SIFT for Genomes) - a software that can lead to faster genome analysis. This development was published in the scientific journal Nature Protocols.
Facebook to pave the way for 5G
Social media network, Facebook have announced the Telecom Infra Project (TIP), an engineering-focused initiative that is bringing operators, infrastructure providers, system integrators and other technology companies together to collaborate on the development of new technologies and reimagine traditional approaches to building and deploying telecom network infrastructure.
The 5G future is closer than you think
In the last decade, advances in how we communicate have redefined what it means to 'be online'. Consumers are ditching desktops and laptops for sleek, handheld devices. Today, millions of Americans use these devices as their primary means to get online. And our devices are not just useful for searching the Internet, but are beginning to help us manage important parts of our lives. In the next decade, the development of the next generation of wire...
CMOS SAW-less digital transmitter enables advanced 3, 4 & 5G
imec and Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) have demonstrated a 0.22mm2CMOS resistive charge-based direct launch digital transmitter with -159dBc/Hz out-of-band noise. The achievement paves the way to small form-factor SAW-less transmitter implementations enabling advanced wireless communication systems including all the cellular standards 3G, 4G and future 5G.
Switches deliver ultra-low latency & high bandwidth for 5G
IDT's next-gen RapidIO switches deliver the ultra-low latency, high bandwidth and superior energy efficiency needed for the development of 4G LTE-A and 5G wireless infrastructure systems. The RXS switch family delivers greater than twice the performance of IDT’s previous-gen switches and are also suited for applications with intensive bandwidth and low latency requirements such as mobile edge computing, high-performance computing and data a...
Whitepaper explores rural ‘not-spots’ in the 5G era
The University of Surrey’s 5G Innovation Centre (5GIC) has published a whitepaper describing the capacity and coverage challenge for wireless networks in the coming decades. Collaborating with partners from BT, Telefonica, Real Wireless and EE, 5GIC researchers identified a need for 5G to tackle the challenge of universal mobile coverage that delivers the required speed and capacity for a range of applications, in a range of geographical ar...
Dealing with design complexity
CEVA has introduced its CEVA-X architecture framework, thus helping to enhance performance and power efficiency for the processing of the control and data planes in baseband applications. The new CEVA-X addresses the increasing complexity of baseband designs in a wide range of applications, including LTE-Advanced PHY control, Machine-Type-Communication (MTC) and wireless connectivity.
