ART-Fi launches the ART-MAN Duobody Universal SAR measurement system, the first single-unit, 100 percent vector system to measure SAR for worldwide requirements, meeting all the regulations for tissue simulation.

M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc., a leading supplier of high performance analog RF, microwave and optical semiconductor products, announced the new NPT2024, a wideband transistor optimized for DC to 2.7 GHz operation using MACOM’s proprietary gallium nitride on silicon (GaN on Si) process is sampling today. The NPT2024 supports CW, pulsed and linear operation, boasting output levels up to 200 W. 

Technical Editor, Gary Lerude, hosts a GaN market discussion with James Klein, president of Qorvo's infrastructure and defense products and Eric Higham, director of advanced semiconductor applications at Strategy Analytics.

Keysight Technologies Inc. announced it is collaborating with the University of Bristol on 5G millimeter-wave research. The two organizations are already deeply involved in the 5G ecosystem in Europe and the U.S. and now will be working closely together on multiple 5G millimeter-wave technologies. 

Z-Communications Inc., a worldwide leader in the design and manufacturing of RF and microwave components, is pleased to introduce a new series of RF amplifier products with the release of the PAC18700T and DRC23000M. Operating in the K-band, the PAC18700T and DRC23000M provide a unique advantage by allowing quick and simple installation into systems with their integrated supply circuitry allowing to be operated from a single power source and availability in a SMA connectorized module package.  These remarkable new RF amplifiers are further heightened by their high output power, high gain, and superior linearity. 

PCTEST Engineering Laboratory Inc., an accredited testing laboratory for wireless testing and certification, has expanded its over-the-air (OTA) conformance testing capabilities with the purchase of a CTIA-compliant R&S TS8991 Wireless Performance Test Chamber (WPTC) from Rohde & Schwarz.

NI (formerly AWR Corp.) announces that AWR Connected™ for Antenna Magusnow supports the 64-bit V12 release of NI AWR Design Environment™. This interface between the respective firms' software products expedites antenna design from synthesis within Antenna Magus to full circuit/ electromagnetic (EM) simulation with Microwave Office circuit design software and AXIEM 3D planar EM simulation.

San-tron Inc., a manufacturer of RF coaxial connectors and cable assemblies, will be reviewing several new innovative connectors and assemblies at the European Microwave Week in Paris, France, September 6–11. With a growing line of advanced, outdoor, low-PIM cable assemblies and new innovative pressurized solutions several environmental challenges related to coax can be overcome.

The motto of European Microwave Week 2015 is Freedom through Microwaves, which addresses the concept of modern living where microwave technologies are opening up new frontiers that will govern how individuals and objects communicate, sense and move. In particular there is major interest in the development and evolution of the ‘Connected Humans’ concept where there is potential for the microwave community to play a significant role as we look towards Horizon 2020.

M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc., a leading supplier of high-performance analog RF, microwave and optical semiconductor products, today announced the MAAP-011246, a new 2-Watt power amplifier, and the MAAP-011139, a new 4-Watt power amplifier in a SMT package. These 4-stage, fully matched power amplifiers are ideally suited for Ka-Band SATCOM applications, and provide industry leading linearity for either final power amplification stages or driver stages in higher power applications.
