NYU WIRELESS announced that Keysight Technologies, Inc.  joined the university research center as a new industrial affiliate sponsor. The partnership comes as the Federal Communications Commission explores the potential of mobile radio services in the millimeter-wave radio spectrum—an area in which NYU WIRELESSis developing fundamental science, theory, and measurements.

The FCC’s Notice of Inquiry is viewed as an important validation of a technology that holds the potential for 1,000 times today’s wireless data capacity, but which was sometimes viewed as improbable until recent research breakthroughs.

Keysight Technologies Inc. is the world’s leading electronic measurement company, transforming today’s measurement experience through innovations in wireless, modular, and software solutions. With its HP and Agilent legacy, Keysight delivers solutions in wireless communications, aerospace and defense and semiconductor markets with world class platforms, software and consistent measurement science.
