The Telit Cinterion ME310M1-W1 LTE module received approval for use on the AT&T network, adding cellular connectivity to IoT devices. Telit Cinterion’s ME310M1-W1, is the first cellular Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) module based on Sony’s Altair ALT1350 chipset to receive AT&T network approval. The ALT1350 chipset supports both unlicensed spectrum and satellite connectivity in […]
10Base-T1S/L connects sensors in cars and buildings
IEEE 802.3cg defines these two Ethernet flavors, which deliver data and power over a single pair of wires. In 2019, IEEE published 802.3cg, which added clauses 146 and 147 to its Ethernet 802.3 standard, which created 10Base-T1S (short reach) and 10Base-T1L (long reach). These two Ethernet flavors can serve vehicles and industry, respectively, where few […]
Flexible PTP profiles ease the transition to 5G
5G brought architecture changes that require synchronization. Depending on the location and network site, those timing requirements require different PTP profiles and PTP capacity.
Chipset, network, module partnership brings LTE connectivity to IoT devices
Engineers designing IoT devices need to focus on the hardware and software for their device’s applications such as smart meters, logistics tracking devices, and so on. For many designers, connectivity is not their area of expertise. Soracom, a provider and SIM cards and eSIM devices for IoT, has partnered with Sony Semiconductor (formerly Altair) and […]
EE World’s 2023 communications handbook is here
Our 2023 5G, Wired, & Wireless Handbook is now available in ebook form. Download your copy today. It started on a cold January day with an editorial call. A month later, the abstracts came in. After another month, the manuscripts came in. Then came the editing and some back-and-forth with the authors. Next, it was…
5G mmWave test builds on RF best practices
The high level of integration in today’s mmWave phone means traditional test methods no longer apply.
Test methods for mmWave AiP designs bring tradeoffs
Engineers have several mmWave over-the-air test methods available for evaluating phased-array antennas used in antenna-in-package designs. Each has pros and cons.
Module brings Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Thread, and Matter to embedded designs
The IRIS-W1 module from u-blox lets IoT devices connect over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth while supporting Thread and Matter protocols. IoT module company u-blox has announced the IRIS-W1, which the company claims is the first stand-alone Wi-Fi module to combine dual-band Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth LE (Low Energy) 5.3, and Thread including support for Matter protocols. Based […]
Customize private 5G networks for application requirements
5G private networks show potential for a wide range of diverse applications. Engineers can implement features to address the requirements of markets such as manufacturing and non-terrestrial networks.
Our second 5G Handbook is now available
Featuring 15 articles, the 2022 5G Handbook looks at private networks, timing, connectivity, latency, mmWaves, test, and other topics.
