There are many challenges associated with improving the Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) of electronic devices, including the limitation of the physical size and assembly processes, and spectrum congestion forcing new systems to move to higher frequencies. This article addresses these issues by discussing when to use a custom MMIC in the design process.
When developing a communication datalink range, it is important to consider the ability to provide sufficient signal strength out to the intended operational range of the platform. This article discusses the options available to improve the datalink range for different applications.
Unmanned aerial systems (UAVs) are continually advancing in respect to both defense and domestic applications. The fast development pace has led to an expanding list of missions that increase the demand on systems in terms of power consumption, payload, and the ability to operate beyond line of sight safely and reliably. This article discusses the importance of Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) to missions with UAVs.
Remcom’s Consulting is an ideal solution for those organizations that need electromagnetic expertise without an ongoing need for in-house EM simulation software. Remcom provides EM modeling experts, software developers, and high-end computational resources to meet your most challenging EM simulation analysis needs.
FEKO, Altair’s comprehensive electromagnetic simulation software suite, can be used in electronic virtual prototyping and simulation driven designs, including antenna design for many products such as mobile phones, tablets, cameras, laptops, and TVs. The software can eliminate weak antenna designs and reduce the number of prototypes with its proof of concept and comparative studies. Pre-compliance of over-the-air (OTA) radiation performance and specific absorption rate (SAR) can be estimated for the standalone device, or for different usage environments.

AR’s “U” Series Amplifiers are designed with the broadest frequency ranges from 10 kHz to 1000 MHz, and offer a wide power spectrum from 1 – 25 Watts. Created with smaller, more affordable sizes without compromising on performance or durability, these amplifiers are ideal for multiple applications across diverse industries.
High peak-to-average power ratios (PAPRs) are not beneficial as they challenge the non-linear power amplifier operation close to compression in order to reach maximum efficiency. Possible solutions for include crest factor reductions (CFR), such as clipping high signal peaks. This video demonstrates a simple technique to clip any waveform, including the Verizon Wireless 5GTF signal, with the use of software tools for signal generation and analysis.
