In a Micro Apps Pavilion presentation on the exhibit floor at IMS 2015, National Instruments (NI) presented a really insightful discussion entitled “Transceiver Module & Multi-Element Phased Array ...

THE ANTENNA IS A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF ANY GNSS RECEIVING EQUIPMENT. It must be carefully designed for the frequencies and structures of the signals to be acquired and tracked. Important antenna ...

Evolving communication systems are driving developments in the RF/microwave industry. The large umbrella of 5G focuses on supporting three main technologies: enhanced mobile broadband, which is the ...

This blog discusses several challenges behind developing mmWave radar systems for the next generation of smart cars and trucks and looks at new capabilities recently added to electronic design ...

POLARIZATION. We use the word in everyday speech to mean a division into two groups with sharply contrasting opinions or beliefs. But the word has another use in physics and electrical engineering to ...

Why a reflective array offers benefits compared to active elements in a high-density array. How a binary phase-control scheme is used in place of conventional phasing for extremely low power, ...

This blog installment discusses common types of beamforming algorithms as well as a framework to develop and test your own beamformers. Phased-array systems have many advantages over single antennas.

Phased array technology is far from new. Phased-array antennas have been used for decades in a variety of military applications. Now, however, their use in 5G systems in the Band 2 frequency range is ...
