Growing availability of tools reducing risk of using RISC-V

December 1, 2020 By Jeff Shepard Leave a Comment

RISC-V

As discussed at the end of the first FAQ in this series, “RISC-V is growing and offers stability, scalability, and security,” there is a lack of testing standards and tools for RISC-V compared with mature ISAs such as Intel and Arm. This is an area that is experiencing accelerating developments and progress. The growing availability […]

RISC-V is growing and offers stability, scalability and security

November 30, 2020 By Jeff Shepard Leave a Comment

RiSC-V

RISC-V is growing rapidly. Semico Research has projected that 62.4 billion RISC-V CPU cores will be sold in 2025. While that’s only about 6% of the overall CPU core market, RISC-V is an emerging technology that most designers should follow and become increasingly familiar with. RISC-V is becoming more commercially attractive as a result of […]

Quantum compasses and optical imaging for global positioning and navigation

October 27, 2020 By Jeff Shepard Leave a Comment

There is an emerging demand for a replacement for today’s global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), and especially for the global position system (GPS) in the U.S. Part one of this three-part FAQ series presented several of the shortcomings of today’s GPS technology and some efforts to augment it and improve its performance. Part two presented […]

eLORAN a terrestrial alternative to GPS

October 26, 2020 By Jeff Shepard 1 Comment

Terrestrial-based hyperbolic navigation technologies predate today’s satellite-based global positioning system (GPS). Starting with developments in the 1930s and 1940s, land-based long-range navigation (LORAN) systems using hyperbolic navigation have been continuously advanced. Today, the enhanced LORAN (eLORAN) system has been offered a more secure alternative to GPS. Hyperbolic navigation technologies were independently developed in the U.S. […]

GPS is a ubiquitous and problematic technology

October 25, 2020 By Jeff Shepard Leave a Comment

Much of the world depends upon satellite systems for precise navigation and timing services. The global positioning system (GPS) is a ubiquitous and problematic technology. Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is the umbrella term for satellite navigation systems that provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning with global coverage. GNSS includes GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, Beidou, and other regional […]
