On March 15, 2019, the Federal Communications Commission began considering opening up a new spectrum of radio waves that researchers believe could become integral to the sixth generation of wireless communications (6G) as part of the never-ending quest to send more data more quickly over the air. The FCC chairman invited the researcher who …
Yes, it sounds crazy — and yes, we’re still at the very early stages of 5G — but it is officially time to start talking about 6G. The FCC voted on March 15, 2018 to approve experiments in spectrum above 95GHz. “Prior to this decision, the commission had no rules for authorizing communications above 95GHz, …
The FCC unanimously voted to adopt new rules related to the spectrum above 95 GHz that encourage the development of new technologies—and may even lead to 6G. Once thought to be more or less useless—similar to how much of the industry used to think of the millimeter wave spectrum that’s now being deployed for 5G—these …
A comprehensive list of awards given to Institute Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Elza Erkip would be a very lengthy document. Early on, Erkip, the junior past president of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Information Theory Society, was selected by the National Science Foundation (NSF) as one of the country’s most promising young researchers, garnering …

What wireless devices could work in the heady region between 95GHz and 3THz? That’s the question the chairman of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission is asking. The FCC will start work on releasing a whopping 21 GHz of spectrum above 95GHz at proceedings in March. In addition, it aims to open up bands from 95GHz …
Verizon deployed mmWave fixed wireless access service late last year in Sacramento (CA) as one of their pilot cities. Recently, Earl Lum surveyed the location of most of the access points and determined their coverage would be marginal and thus results were probably not that great due to the location of many of them – …
It’s been a big week for 5G, the next generation of wireless networks. Samsung announced its first 5G capable phone, the S10, on Wednesday. Qualcomm announced a new 5G modem on Tuesday. But President Trump is aiming higher. “I want 5G, and even 6G, technology in the United States as soon as possible,” Trump wrote …
Samsung Research America, a wholly owned subsidiary of Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., has joined NYU WIRELESS, a leading research center in the Tandon School of Engineering, as its 14th industrial affiliate member.
