81. Ultra-Whatband? Ultra-Wideband! 12/10/2021

    Thanks to Verizon’s 5G marketing campaigns, there’s a boatload of confusion about what ultra-wideband (UWB) is and why it matters. Those of us fortunate enough to work around UWB technology and products would never confuse it for a 5G data plan, but let’s quickly bust a few UWB myths for everyone else.

82. Front End Module: QPF4532 Datasheet 12/10/2021

    The Qorvo QPF4532 is an integrated front end module (FEM) designed for Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) systems. The compact form factor and integrated matching minimizes layout area in the application.

83. 5G Technology Devices For An O-RAN Wireless Solution 11/22/2021

    O-RAN was created as a catalyst to transform the wireless community, to enable new channels of wireless equipment, and to enable innovation to fulfill the promises made by 3GPP about 5G.1 To be successful and cost-effective, open sources of radio equipment and optimized 5G technology devices must be available.

84. Simplifying The Transition From 5G Operations At Sub-6GHz To mmWave 11/16/2021

    There are three key differences between sub-6 GHz and mmWave operations. There are also a variety of different RF design challenges at mmWave largely because as frequency increases, wavelength decreases.
