Recent debate about potential interference between 5G network equipment operating in C-band frequencies and radar altimeter (RA) receivers onboard commercial aircraft has highlighted the need for high-Q filtering solutions in crowded spectral environments. This paper presents two Mini-Circuits filters fabricated using ceramic resonator and cavity technologies designed specifically to eliminate interference by 5G C-Band emissions when incorporated either within or in line with the RA assembly.

The journey from concept to full-scale semiconductor packaging is often hindered by a number of different obstacles along the way including everything from diverse teams scattered across the world to simply not understanding how the manufacturing process of die bonding, wire bonding or vacuum reflow impacts the package design and vice versa.

Radio Frequency (RF) Filters are necessary for filtering out unwanted signals from equipment such as wireless and satellite communications, radar and broadcasting applications and transmit and receive modules. This paper explores filter topologies, effectiveness of the filters and market applications.

Satellite communication systems combine features from cellular networks and wireless technologies. New constellations are under development that attempt to provide ubiquitous mobility and internet networks via satellites, ground stations and user terminals. Each link in the supply chain presents challenges for R&D, production and deployment for the components and system development.

This book reveals how UWB will shape the world around us and help businesses, consumers, and industries. It delivers a general understanding of UWB and the different topologies used based on the application. It also paints the picture of a UWB enabled world with current, and future, applications.

High quality testing requires significantly higher polarisation purity of the system in which the antenna is being tested than of the test object itself. Research to improve polarization performance in a single-reflector CATR has delivered a viable solution in a wide-band dual-polarized conjugate-matched CXR feed.

The term 5G applies to the 5th generation mobile network designed to connect virtually everyone and everything - machines and devices - within the Internet of Things (IoT). However, to incorporate 5G into IoT devices, technological advances are developed as this progress presents potential EMI issues not present in earlier wireless systems.

Miniaturization is expanding, as the need for small and complex components increases. Current manufacturing methods such as micro molding have long wait times and are very expensive. This white paper explains how micro 3D printing provides the flexibility of additive manufacturing at a price point that is affordable for production scenarios.

With 6G networks on the horizon faster speeds will result in higher data rates for users using the 3.5 GHz frequency bands for area-wide services and the 26-28 GHz bands for high data rate hotspots.
