New Class 4 Systems Change How Technology is Powered |
Hailed as the ultimate playbook for safe installation of electrical systems, the National Electrical Code® (NEC) is in a constant state of improvement. Updated once every three years, work is always being done behind the scenes on the NEC (also called NFPA 70®) to protect people and property from the potential hazards that arise when using electricity.

Failure Analysis for Reliable 5G mmWave Infrastructure |
Achieving widespread 5G coverage at millimeter wave (mmWave) frequencies of 24 GHz and higher will require large numbers of printed-circuit-board (PCB) assemblies working at those frequencies and production lines capable of producing them with high quality in high volumes. Failure analysis (FA) helps improve the production of electronic products at RF/microwave frequencies, and it can also be applied to achieve production success with mmWave systems.

4D imaging radar: Addressing the rising complexity and cost of automotive safety |
This white paper explains why the industry is embracing a new model: multi-functionality on a single-chip platform. Powered by 4D imaging MIMO radar, it features multiple distinct aspects that are instrumental in reducing complexity and cost while enhancing safety.

5G and Wi-Fi 6E - Friends or Foes? |
Two common approaches being used are orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), which is the most efficient way to pack data into a wireless signal, and multi-user multiple-input and multiple-output (MU-MIMO), which sends unique data streams simultaneously to multiple users. With these standard approaches, both networks are powering gigabit speeds and quicker response times for users. While there are purists that tout one technology over the other, what counts is the technology’s ability to provide high- quality user experiences. Is one better than the other? Let’s look at some of the primary considerations for choosing to use 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, or both.

LTE-NR spectrum sharing emerges as a technology that allows service providers to deploy LTE and NR in the same carriers and bands. That is to say, spectrum sharing enables both LTE and NR to be simultaneously deployed and share resources in the carrier. The time-frequency resources in the carrier are dynamically assigned to either LTE or NR according to their respective traffic demands. This dynamic allocation is known as dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS).

5G Standalone Architecture |
The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) introduces two primary architecture options for 5G deployment from LTE: Non-Standalone (NSA) and Standalone (SA). NSA enables rapid 5G service deployment with minimum investment by leveraging the existing LTE infrastructures. SA consists of a single Radio Access Technology (RAT), meaning it is possible to provide full 5G enhancements designed to work only in the 5G New Radio (NR) SA
architecture.

Private Networks with Samsung Compact Core |
One of the first things that people think of, when talking about mobile networks, is public networks. A public network is broadband network that is designed by Mobile Network Operators (MNO) to provide network services to the general public. In a public network, people choose an MNO of their choice and pay for services, which then allows people to use the network anytime, anywhere. In addition to public networks are also private networks. A private network, coined as a non-public network in 3GPP, is a type of network that is designed for typical enterprises, such as companies and schools, to provide their own services for their own purposes. In a private network, only authenticated people can access the network.

Manufacturing Miniature PCBs for Mixed-Signal Circuits |
Circuits grow increasingly complex with ever-increasing demands for higher functional integration, even as those circuits are required to fit smaller spaces in commercial, industrial, and military applications. To meet demands for circuit miniaturization and lower size, weight, and power (SWaP) requirements, Benchmark Lark Technology has made significant investments in circuit fabrication technology and equipment, achieving enhanced capabilities for designing and manufacturing small, highly integrated mixed-signal circuits in multilayer and very-high-density-interconnect (VHDI) mixed-material configurations.

Advances in Automotive E Band Antenna Design |
Vehicles increasingly use sensor data for driver alerts and semi-autonomous functions, driven by improvements in data speed and image resolution. Automotive E band frequencies (Long Range Radar: 76-77GHz and Short Range Radar: 77-81GHz) quickly gather relevant data about a vehicle’s surroundings. The higher frequencies provide better bandwidth, sweep, and resolution than the traditional 24GHz band. E band frequencies also allow for reduced antenna sizes, which offer flexibility in mounting.
