The world's first fully integrated detect-track-disrupt Anti-UAV Defence System, launched by Blighter Surveillance Systems, Chess Dynamics and Enterprise Control Systems now features a quad-band RF inhibitor/jammer, an optical disruptor and rapid deployment features in the final production version of the counter-drone system.

Anokiwave Inc., an innovative company providing highly integrated core IC solutions for mmW and AESA markets, announced the worldwide release of the first in a family of X-Band Silicon Radar Quad Core IC solutions for commercial radar and 5G communications markets.

CableLabs, a non-profit R&D consortium dedicated to the development of innovative technologies that significantly impact its cable operator members' businesses, is committed to increasing the quality and security of Wi-Fi enabled devices to meet the growing needs of cable operators around the world.

ANADIGICS Inc., a world leader in radio frequency (RF) solutions, introduced three new power amplifiers (PA) optimized for 3G and 4G small-cell applications, including picocells, enterprise-class femtocells and high-performance customer premises equipment (CPE). Service providers are expected to increasingly leverage small-cell equipment to improve network capacity and data speeds in densely populated areas.

Intercept Technology Inc., a leading EDA software developer for PCB, RF and Hybrid Design solutions today announced powerful and leading-edge enhancements to Pantheon Ink Resistor functionality. In line with Intercept’s mission to provide the highest in advanced design technology, enhancements include the ability to create rectangular as well as complex ink resistor shapes parametrically on the fly during layout, or from information obtained from a schematic.

M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc., a leading supplier of high-performance analog, RF, microwave, millimeter wave and photonic semiconductor products, announced that it has shipped more than one million GaN-on-Silicon (GaN on Si) RF power devices to date to customers for use in communications, military and other RF applications.  

 The Internet of Things, or IoT, is driving new use cases for wearables, including lifestyle and wellness apps, requiring more diverse device support on mobile networks. With cellular networks already covering 90 percent of the world's population, consumers expect their wearables to benefit from the same ubiquitous connectivity as their feature phones and smartphones. To address growing consumer demand and the proliferation of such new IoT applications, Ericsson, Sony Mobile and SK Telecom are testing and trialing new device and network innovations to support secure and ubiquitous LTE network connectivity for new lower cost, lower power IoT devices. 

Qorvo Inc., a leading provider of RF solutions for mobile, infrastructure and aerospace/defense applications, announced three new GaN RF transistors in low-cost plastic packages designed to enable smaller size and greater reliability in civilian marine, airborne and infrastructure radar systems.

Diamond Microwave, a specialist in high performance microwave power amplifiers, announced a ten-fold increase in its power output capability with the addition of a 1 kW X-band model to the company’s range of GaN-based pulsed solid-state power amplifiers (SSPA).

Guerrilla RF Inc., a leading provider of high performance MMICs, introduced a new addition to the company’s family of high linearity gain blocks featuring a unique combination of simple-application schematic, flat gain and high compressed output power which operate from near DC up to 4 GHz.
