The many technical factors that must be assessed in 5G antenna design, including their interactions. Further physical/environmental considerations for both the antenna and the entire system. In the ...

When two competing technologies approach cost parity, the better performing technology will always win out in the market. This is an accepted truism throughout the embedded electronics and ...

Many radar, electronic warfare, communications and avionics systems are thermally limited. These systems cannot remove the heat generated by their components efficiently enough to reach the potential ...

Anritsu's ME7873NR NR RF conformance test system recently attained PCS Type Certification Review Board certification.

Menlo Microsystems, Inc. announced the launch of its MM5130-NLX switch, a high-standoff RF front-end protection solution designed for the most demanding aerospace and defense (A&D) applications. The ...

Hillsboro, OR — TriQuint Semiconductor has announced the availability of a revolutionary high power discrete RF transistor family for broadband applications including radar, signal jammers and ...

The author is director, RF engineering at Shively Labs. Just about anything can happen to cause failure in an RF system. Antenna damage from wind, falling ice, lightning, tower work, vandalism, loose ...

As chip designs push the limits of speed, size and complexity, the semiconductor industry has set its sights on angstrom-scale device features. High-speed, precise and repeatable plasma power delivery ...

One very successful trick I use to simulate radiated immunity on the bench is to run an RF generator into an H-field (loop) probe. The best level seems to be +15 to +20 dBm. This will generate an ...
