Visions are emerging of the mobile networks of the future; by understanding how the respective technologies fit into the overall RAN picture, engineers will be able to implement these advances as they become available. By John Spindler, Director of Product Management, TE Connectivity.

Demand for improvements in digital control to increase power supply efficiency is coming from every aspect of industry, presenting semiconductor manufacturers with the challenge and opportunity to develop more advanced solutions.By Philip Ling

A range of ultra-compact mini PLCs that require no peripheral components for autonomous operation, thereby helping to simplify wiring and assembly is the latest extension to the RS Components automation and control portfolio. The Barth Elektronik STG-500 mini PLCs provide 10 I/Os and 19 I/Os respectively, comprising digital, analogue and PWM channels.

The founder of electronic engineering company Assembled Electronics Solutions is due to announce the formation of a new innovative company, Anangke Technology. This has been inspired by Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works project, where a division of the aerospace company is autonomous and unhampered by bureaucracy in order to complete advanced and challenging projects.

The International Conference on Electric Fuses and their applications is to be held in Dresden in September 2015. Electric fuses play a vital role in the protection of low, medium and high-voltage power systems, power electronic systems, EV, renewable energy systems and many other areas. The conference provides a platform for researchers, manufacturers, users and those involved with safety standardisation to share and discuss the latest developme...

A solution for testing automatic in vehicle emergency call systems will be a highlight on Rohde & Schwarz’s stand at the Automotive Testing Expo in Stuttgart (June 16-18). Based on an EU decision, eCall will be mandatory in all new car models from April 2018. ERA-Glonass, which is the Russian equivalent, was launched in spring 2015.

One of the big problems Google is working on today is car safety and efficiency. Its goal is to help prevent traffic accidents, free up people’s time and reduce carbon emissions by fundamentally changing car use. So it has developed technology for cars that can drive themselves.

Tallysman has introduced the TW5340 smart antenna, pairing Tallysman‘sAccutenna technologywith STMicroelectronics’ Teseo II receiver. This combination makes this product the most accurate smart antenna for use in every environment, including urban canyons.The TW5340 is a multi-constellation GNSS Smart Antenna which provides simultaneous GPS/GLONASS/SBAS reception.

With the brushless DC motor BG 95, Dunkemotoren launches a new power package. The new member of the Dunker family provides 1100 W output power continuously and can be overloaded up to four times.

As autonomous vehicles edge ever closer to mainstream reality, it’s now legislation and litigation that are expected to hold things up, not technology. But that only puts more pressure on manufacturers to get their solutions to market, as Philip Ling investigates.
