Analog repeaters dramatically enhance millimeter-wave (mmWave) coverage in mobile networks by overcoming signal blockage, report researchers from Science Tokyo. As demonstrated in a field experiment at Ookayama Campus, low-cost repeaters connected either wirelessly or via […]

Just because Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos aren’t the best of friends, and Amazon’s Project Kuiper will directly compete with SpaceX’s Starlink satellites for broadband internet, doesn’t mean everyone can’t still get along.This article is […]

Terahertz frequencies above 100 GHz offer extremely wide bandwidths suitable for next-generation wireless communications, and research toward their practical use is ongoing worldwide. In particular, the 150 GHz and 300 GHz bands are actively being […]

Countries have come to rely on a network of cables and pipes under the sea for their energy and communications. So it has been worrying to read headlines about communications cables being cut and, in […]

Imagine a world where every smart device, from traffic sensors to wearable health monitors, can seamlessly communicate. This vision is at the heart of Massive Machine Type Communication (mMTC), a cornerstone of 5G and future […]

The QUICK³ nano satellite will test components for future quantum satellite systems. The goal is to enable rapid and secure communication using quantum technology. Developed by a research consortium led by TUM professor Tobias Vogl, […]

United Launch Alliance took a week to reset, but was able to send up its second launch of the year, another mission for Amazon’s effort to compete with SpaceX’s Starlink internet constellation. The launch came […]

A novel time-division MIMO technology enables phased-array receivers to operate faster with exceptional area efficiency and low power, as reported by researchers from the Institute of Science Tokyo. The proposed system significantly reduces circuit complexity […]

Earlier today, Iranian officials urged the country’s citizens to remove the messaging platform WhatsApp from their smartphones. Without providing any supporting evidence, they alleged the app gathers user information to send to Israel.This article is […]

MIT researchers have designed a compact, low-power receiver for 5G-compatible smart devices that is about 30 times more resilient to a certain type of interference than some traditional wireless receivers.This article is brought to you […]
