As next-generation wireless network infrastructure starts to be rolled out (both WLAN and cellular), there will be opportunities to support a much greater breadth of potential services. This will mean that the lifestyles of those residing in densely-populated urban environments can be markedly enhanced. By Mark Montierth, Vice President and General Manager, NXP Semiconductors

The number of Fixed Wireless Access broadband providers across the UK has jumped as homes and businesses create demand for faster broadband. Ofcom has also joined the UK Wireless Internet Service Providers Association (UKWISPA).

To help secure the Internet of Things (IoT), connected devices require an array of on-chip security features such as an immutable device identity, secure boot with root of trust, secure key storage and hardware crypto accelerations paired with a high-entropy random number generator. Marius Munder, Senior Staff Engineer, Systems Architect, Silicon Labs, explains the role an integrated secure element can play in achieving this.

You’re designing a mass-market OBD dongle for consumer vehicles with a built-in latest-gen multiband, multi-constellation GNSS receiver. Its datasheet promises two-metre CEP68 position accuracy, which means that 68% of its measurements are within 2.0 metres of its true position.
