Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) is a spectrum use coordination system designed specifically for 6 GHz operation In order for unlicensed Wi-Fi 7 (or 802.11be) devices to play nice in the 6 GHz band with the licensed users already occupying that band, the Federal Communications...

The benefits brought about by the introduction of 5G are clearly identified, notably offering higher data throughput, enhanced signal reliability and lower latency, but it is the use of 5G beyond the mobile devices ecosystem that makes this generation so distinct from the others....

In an address to the Free State Foundation, Federal Communications Commissioner Nathan Simington continued a conversation that he says has "ruffled a few feathers": Receiver standards. In his remarks, Simington relayed a number of the points that he says have been raised to him...

The growing use of advanced networks for LTE and the upcoming introduction of 5G reflect an important growth in mobile data traffic. In this context, in order to be able to meet the needs of operators, including for wireless backhaul, the industry faces an...

Cellular technologies have advanced from first generation (1G) analog technologies to advanced high performance fourth generation (4G) and fifth generation (5G) systems in just four decades. Despite the increase in complexity of wireless standards and devices, cellular technologies maintain a set of common principles...

NETWORK-BASED DRIVERS FOR BETTER SPECTRUM AWARENESS There are multiple reasons why operators and regulators are interested in more comprehensive and efficient approaches to spectrum monitoring and the identification, location and mitigation of interference. These range from enabling new spectrum sharing approaches, to enabling the internet...

In mid-2016, the Federal Communications Commission’s Technical Advisory Committee asked for public comment on whether it should study “changes to the spectrum noise floor over the past 20 years.” The number and type of devices which produce radio frequency energy has radically changed in...

Webinar Demonstrates Wireless InSite’s Diffuse Scattering Simulation Among the many changes planned for 5G is the expansion into higher frequencies in the millimeter wave spectrum. Wireless InSite accurately predicts multipath effects in indoor and outdoor environments, offering a powerful tool for detailed simulation of channel...

Lawyer: Berkeley ordinance violates the First Amendment WASHINGTON – A major telecom lobbying group has filed suit to strike down a Berkeley, Calif., city ordinance that requires retailers to warn customers about dangers associated with RF radiation. Berkeley city officials passed the so-called Right to Know...
