When a natural disaster strikes and too many people take to their mobile phones at once, cellular networks easily overload. But a University of British Columbia graduate student has develope... Read more
TAU researcher develops surprising tool to measure our changing climate The ionosphere, one of the regions of the upper atmosphere, plays an important role in global communications. Ionized... Read more
New hardware could lead to wireless devices that identify and exploit unused transmission frequencies, using radio spectrum much more efficiently. The way in which radio spectrum is currentl... Read more
Electromagnetic interference is not just a problem in electric and hybrid drives To enable radio reception in electric vehicles, manufacturers must install filters and insulate cables, since... Read more
“Our wireless window contacts draw all their energy from ambient radio signals,” It is 7:30 a.m. and high time she left the house; she mustn’t be late for her 8 o... Read more
It has no external controls With recent advances in photovoltaic panels and rechargeable batteries, it’s only natural that there should now be an influx of solar-powered electro... Read more
I noted how much it reminded me of when I was an actual DJ on the radio many years ago, where so much of the fun wasn’t just in playing music, but in hanging out with a bunch of friend... Read more
Whether it be over walkie talkies or Wi-Fi, wireless communication is a one way street, meaning radio traffic can flow in only one direction at a time on a specific frequency. To get around... Read more
At the International Solid State Circuit Conference, imec and Holst Centre report a 2.4GHz/915MHz wake-up receiver which consumes only 51µW power. This record low power achievement opens the... Read more
