Private 5G networks unlock IoT applications
As more industries rely on wireless devices, sensors, and artificial intelligence to connect people and machines, private networks bring the potential to enable more advanced IoT applications while increasing security, bandwidth and speed.
Learn these five basic RF measurements
Basic RF measurements go a long way toward characterizing today's communication systems.
SDR adds flexibility to communications systems
Software-defined radio addresses problems and limitations found in hardware-based radios, such as hardware obsolescence and rigidity.
Exfo rejects another Viavi takeover bid
Communications test-equipment choices would get still fewer if Exfo's board accepts an offer, but that's highly unlikely.
Amplifiers drive mixers and multipliers
The AMM-7199 and AMM-7200 series from Marki Microwave drive downstream components in mmWave RF systems
IMS 2021: Components to test equipment
A hybrid International Microwave Symposium (IMS) took place live in Atlanta and online two weeks later in June 2021. See a selection of companies and product — mostly 5G — showcased in the virtual version.

Open RAN unlocks network functions
In a video interview, Analog Devices’ Nitin Sharma explains the company’s involvement with open RAN and the concept of a functional split. Open radio access networks are all the talk at the network — as opposed to the wireless — side of 5G. While most of the talk surrounds the disaggregation of network functions, the…
