Day 1 of the 2021 Brooklyn 6G summit looked at the upcoming standards, features, and enhancements that will come to 5G while the research community explores 6G technologies.
3 Things to know when transitioning to mmWave
Get a handle on the differences between working at the traditional sub-6 GHz frequencies and mmWave frequencies. The old design techniques won’t work in this new world.
5G RFICs take mmWave from baseband to antenna
Sivers Semiconductors’ TRB02801 and TRB03901 provide a complete baseband-to-antenna signal chain, covering 28 GHz and 39 GHz. 5G Technology World spoke with CEO Anders Storm about the RFIC functions and applications.
mmWave connector reaches 25 GHz
The 5G25 connector from Molex covers IF frequencies for mmWave applications.
Terahertz research: The road to 6G with Northeastern University
5G Technology World visits Northeastern University’s Ultrabroadband Nanonetworking Lab for a firsthand look at what’s possible in wireless data communications.
5G IoT cellular module covers North America
The Fibocom FM160-NA adds 5G, 4G, and 3G wireless connectivity to IoT devices.
6G Symposium emphasizes business and technology
The latest symposium took a turn toward business use cases at the expense of the usual technical talks, with speakers saying that use cases should drive the technology. Through most of 5G’s development, conference topics generally focused on the technologies such as the radio and network technologies. With much of that settled, talk moved to…
Filters keep RF signals in line
In a video interview with 5G Technology World, Resonant’s Mike Eddy explains how RF filters keep wanted signals in an interference out. It’s all in the physics. As bandwidth gets crowded, governments auction more spectrum to accommodate our insatiable demand for data. While 3G used frequencies around 1 GHz, 4G expanded to around 2 GHz.…
5G and AIoT will need new semiconductor materials
Technologies such as gate-all-around FETs and neuromorphic analog memory will increase speed and reduce power consumption in the chiplets that control artificial intelligence of things devices and systems. While 5G provides improved speed to consumers, it’s the industrial, automotive, infrastructure, and IoT applications that make 5G stand out. These applications will need IoT devices that…
How it works: Base station on a chip
EdgeQ is sampling what it calls a “base station on a chip” that handles high-PHY through baseband. CEO Vinay Ravuri explains its architecture in a video.
