At the Automotive Testing Expo (ATE) 2017 (20-22 June) in Stuttgart, Rohde & Schwarz will demonstrate its expertise for the automotive industry. The company will showcase innovative test solutions for the development and production of automotive radar sensors used in driver assistance systems.
Entering the IoT battlefield
Industries have embarked on a journey of digital transformation in this IoT era, through the deployment of 'things' and the use of Big Data. Digitalisation helps the industries to have more interaction with the end users and thus based on the information collected, owners can advance operation process, improve sales and marketing strategies and enhance customer experience.
Power amplifier module features field-replaceable connectors
Availability and full design support capabilities for a new ultra-wideband power amplifier module from Analog Devices have been announced by Richardson RFPD. The HMC-C582 is a GaAs MMIC pHEMT power amplifier in a miniature, hermetic module with replaceable SMA connectors that operates between 0.01GHz and 20GHz.
UWB Radar provides a scalable sensor development platform
Novelda announced the XeThru Developer Platform for sensing applications based on its second-generation X4 UWB impulse radar SoC. With this technology, OEMs and system developers can easily implement sophisticated sensors that can detect small movements, determine presence and room occupancy, and monitor respiration and other human vital signs with unprecedented accuracy and discrimination.
Precision location and tracking for first responders
The precision location of first responders deep within GPS denied infrastructure has been an elusive goal of the fire safety and emergency personnel community for well over a decade. The objective is to pinpoint a location to within a few metres, over the course of tens of minutes. Bob Scannell, Analog Devices explains.
Actual measurement techniques for millimetre wave applications
Today’s most attractive millimetre wave applications lie on the so called E and V Bands. The first of these corresponds to a frequency range from 60GHz to 90GHz, at which Line Of Sight (LOS) transmission is mandatory due mainly to atmospheric attenuation effects. Indeed, many molecules from atmospheric gasses such as oxygen, water vapour or nitrogen can absorb energy at specific wavelengths within this band.
The connected industry and the Internet of Things that really matter - Part I
Whether it’s called the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) or Industry 4.0, the sensing, communication and analysis of data toward improving processes and outcomes is transforming industries from manufacturing and healthcare to transportation, fleet management, mining and agriculture.
Power limiter combines lightning and HPM protection
HUBER+SUHNER has extended its family of protection devices with the launch of the Series 9078 HF high power limiter. Designed specifically to protect sensitive electronic systems, the new device is said to be unique in combining protection against both hostile and friendly high power microwave (HPM) attacks as well as lightning in a single unit.
Life inside the IoT
The world is set to become much smarter over the coming five years. By 2020, some 50 billion electronic devices will be connected to the internet, according to networking specialist Cisco. They will support an estimated $14tr market for distributed intelligence that set to improve not just manufacturing and service efficiency but the quality of life itself. Digi-key explain the impact of the IoT on a variety of industry sectors.
