Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced today a collaboration with Ball Aerospace and Anokiwave to validate the first commercial 5G NR active array antenna product designs in the 26 GHz band. The Keysight 5G NR-ready measurement testbed offers the precision that base station and component designers require to extensively explore the performance edges of a new class of active antenna systems in the “European Pioneer Band.”

Anokiwave announced the first product in a family of second-generation 5G silicon quad core ICs that enable 3GPP-compliant base stations.  The AWMF-0156 operates from 37.1 to 40.0 GHz, supports four radiating elements and includes gain and phase controls for analog beam steering. 

Manufacturers of electronic equipment for Hi-Rel applications often struggle to meet stringent EMC and safety standards.  Knowles Precision Devices (KPD) has a range of EMI components, under the SYFER brand, that particularly appeal to designers in the medical implantable and space sectors as well as industrial, automotive, aerospace and telecom applications.

Inert Corporation has developed a lineup of modular Powder Filtration Systems for additive manufacturing, or 3D Printing, and other manufacturing cells that require collection and disposal of particles and particulate that may be reactive, corrosive or otherwise require special and costly handling.

Cree has appointed Thomas Wessel as senior vice president of global sales and marketing, responsible for Wolfspeed’s power and RF segment and Cree’s LED components. Before joining Cree, Wessel held sales and marketing leadership roles at NanoSemi, ADI, TI and Atlantik Elektronik.

LPKF Laser & Electronics has announced it will be demonstrating its inhouse rapid PCB prototyping equipment at the Satellite 2018 exhibition, which takes place March 13-15 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C.
