Continuing to redefine the traditional single function gain block, Anokiwave is releasing two new ICs in a family of multi-function microwave and mmWave silicon ICs, offering transmit/receive functionality with active gain and phase control.

This week two separate news items, one from Tektronix/IEMN and the other from Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT), both announced development of 100 Gbps “wireless fiber” solutions. Each took a different route with Tektronix and IEMN (a French research laboratory) demonstrating a single carrier wireless link with a 100 Gbps data rate signal at 252 to 325 GHz per the recently published IEEE 802.15.3d standard while NTT used a new principle, Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) multiplexing at 28 GHz  with MIMO technology.

Microwave Journal Editors Pat Hindle and Gary Lerude discuss the May IMS & 5G issue, ZTE/Facebook news and interview Anokiwave's Abhishek Kapoor, VP of Sales, discussing the 5G market and phased array products.

Tektronix, Inc. and IEMN, a major French research laboratory, demonstrated a single carrier wireless link traveling at a 100 Gb/s data rate. This demonstration uses advanced data coding, THz photonics and wideband and linear devices to enable ultra fast wireless connections in the 252 - 325 GHz band per the recently published IEEE 802.15.3d standard.

Setting a world record, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) successfully demonstrated 100 Gbps wireless transmission using orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexing. NTT is developing the technology to enable terabit-class wireless transmission, to support the demand for wireless communications expected in the 2030s.

Anritsu Company enhances its Network Master™ Pro MT1000A to support 100 Gbps with Ethernet Common Public Radio Interface (eCPRI) and IEEE 1914.3 Radio over Ethernet (RoE), as well as high-accuracy delay measurement functions.
