The exponential growth of wireless technology has launched the aerospace industry into a new era. Private companies, many of them start-ups, are taking the lead in what is now pegged the New Space industry to develop the necessary technology required in meeting an increasing need for the fast transfer information. This demand has been driving research and development in satellite technology, in the areas of quality, capabilities and the associated communications systems. Opportunities are ten-fold for start-ups with innovative ideas, such as Isotropic Systems. Understanding that time to market is crucial for startup businesses, MVG supported the Isotropics team in completing their testing phase in a timely fashion, fueling rapid progress in the development of their terminals. Read how Isotropic Systems is benefitting from the use of MVG infrastructure and assets and state-of-the-art measurement technology, as they gain time and reduce expenses in R&D.

The R&S®RTO / R&S®RTE digital oscilloscope is a valuable tool for analyzing EMI problems in electronic designs. High input sensitivity, high dynamic range and a powerful FFT implementation are key features for capturing and analyzing unwanted emissions. Learn more in our paper.

Simulate Angle of Arrival (AoA) with a multichannel RF simulator for reliable test of radar warning receivers.

At every stage of production, starting from the component design and eventually leading up to the final integration and launching phase, uncountable amount of tests are performed in order to ensure intended performance in all mission-critical aspects. The industry-leading accuracy of Rohde & Schwarz equipment described in this paper raises test yield and is a further means to make payload test more cost effective and reliable. This application note addresses system- and manufacturing engineers by focusing on CCR/CATR and TVAC RF tests of components and functional modules as well as complete satellite communication payloads at prelaunch level.

The next generation of wireless and wired communications (S data & video) are reaching ever increasing frequencies and require much greater bandwidth than previous radio delivery systems. As the frequency and bandwidth requirements have risen from hundreds of megahertz to multiple gigahertz, the performance of passives also need to step up to these new performance demands. This article describes the challenges of developing higher frequency and bandwidth wire wrapped ferrite RF passives, as well as some of the ways MiniRF is addressing these challenges and manufacturing ferrites for the next generation of communications technology.

In this White Paper Knowles Precision Devices takes a closer look at some of the considerations to make when implementing filters for mmWave applications such as 5G NR radios in the 24, 26, 28 and 39GHz bands.

Making effective use of Doherty architecture. Up to 60 % more output power and 20 % efficiency increase for RF power amplifier. Learn more.

BIS Research analysis estimates the global autonomous vehicle market was valued at 6.6 million units in 2017 and is expected to reach 67.5 million units by 2028, registering a CAGR of 20.78% between 2018 and 2028. A critical sensor in the autonomous suite is the radar module currently being used for ADAS applications in many cars. This eBook addresses many of the design challenges for radar sensors with articles covering the effects of materials on 77 GHz radar modules, interference challenges in urban environments, testing challenges, and PCB materials solutions to the thermal and high frequency effects.

"Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) support the functionality of just about every working electronic device in use today. If you want to make something that does something, PCBs are likely a component of your product design. First in a series of white papers, PCB Design for Smarties will share our expertise on the subject, helping you move forward to your next project, confident there will be smooth sailing from design through manufacturing."

Today, R&D engineers face challenging time-to-market goals. Extending the product development schedule and delaying the product launch can prove to be extremely costly in terms of opportunity cost and lost market share. Nearly 50 % of products fail EMC compliance the first time.
