Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) is expanding its antenna measurement capabilities with a state-of-the-art spherical near-field antenna range. The 1,260-square-foot indoor range, lined with radio frequency and microwave foam absorbers, is equipped to accurately sample the […]

Researchers from MIT and elsewhere have designed a novel transmitter chip that significantly improves the energy efficiency of wireless communications, which could boost the range and battery life of a connected device.This article is brought […]

In wireless communication, spectrum—radio frequencies that allow devices to communicate over the air—is king.This article is brought to you by this site.

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 […]
