Several standouts for 2022 reached our editorial offices. We present them here. As one year ends and another begins, so come the predictions. Over the past two years, we’ve seen how predicting the upcoming year is harder than ever. That doesn’t stop anyone from trying, though. How many of us throught we’ve still be dealing…
Cellular LTE Cat 1 modules support 4G and 5G
The Calliope 2 GC02S1 module from Sequans lets you take advantage of wide coverages for IoT devices with data rates to 10 Mb/sec. Sequans Communications series of Cat 1 IoT modules based on its second generation, LTE Cat 1bis chip, Calliope 2, are now available.

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…
Radar sensor integrates antenna and signal processing
The BGT60LTR11AIP from Infineon Technologies lets you add a 60-GHz motion sensor to embedded devices.
White paper: 5G evolution – on the path to 6G
5G is now and what’s next? 5G deployments have only recently started, and releases beyond R15 will continue to tap into the tremendous potential of 5G. However, as a new generation of cellular technology typically appears every 8-10 years, 6G can be expected around 2030. Download this white paper to explore the evolution from 5G…
Chipset adds LTE to IoT, falls back to 2G
The ALT1255 from Sony reduces cost for IoT connectivity by limiting features found in higher-end parts.
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.
Add UWB hardware and software to IC designs
CEVA’s Riviera Waves IP lets you add an Ultra-Wideband digital PHY and hardware/software MAC layer to an IC design for use in low-power devices.
Renesas enters the cellular module market
The RYZ014A module lets IoT device designers add 4G LTE Cat-M1 connectivity for low-speed data devices.
5G, B5G, 6G: A tale of two similar conferences
Two conferences, held at the same time, covered mostly the same topics.
