5G/6G

5G RedCap has been launched on the market to close the gap between 4G and high-speed 5G, enabling improved connectivity and efficiency. Telit Cinterion is supplying the corresponding hardware with the 5G RedCap module FE910C04 and the M.2 card FN920C04 (Bagsize / Boxsize), which are now expanding Rutronik's wireless portfolio.

Novocomms has launched a new division – Novocomms Solutions – to exploit the growing demand for Private 5G solutions in the UK and beyond.

Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) is a critical metric for assessing signal quality in 5G New Radio (NR) networks. As cellular technology evolves, increasing data throughput has been achieved by combining wider channel bandwidths with higher-order modulation schemes. However, these advancements also bring new challenges in accurately measuring EVM, particularly in 5G NR, where higher modulation orders and wider bandwidths are common.

Software Radio Systems (SRS) has announced that it has successfully integrated and tested nine Open RAN Radio Units (O-RUs) from Benetel, Foxconn, Picocom, Liteon, VVDN and AMD with its srsRAN Enterprise 5G software solution.

Anritsu has announced full support for 5G and LTE Next Generation eCall (NGeCall) validated test cases on its 5G NR Mobile Device Test Platform ME7834NR enabling GCF certification.

Software Radio Systems (SRS) has announced the launch of srsRAN Enterprise 5G, a portable, scalable, full-stack CU+DU software solution for streamlined private network deployments.

6G state of the art research was demonstrated at European Microwave Week in Paris by Rohde & Schwarz with a proof-of-concept for a system for 6G wireless data transmission based on a photonic THz communications link.

A recent study by the University of Glasgow has introduced an ultra-thin material, called a "metasurface," designed to improve how satellites send and receive signals, particularly in the Ku, K, and Ka frequency bands.

Advantech, a provider of industrial IoT, has announced the launch of the ICR-1600 series industrial 4G connectivity gateways.

Farnell is now shipping the new high-power SPDT (Single-Pole Double-Throw) RF antenna switch from Toshiba.
