Leaders in wireless, automotive, healthcare, academia and government will gather at the third annual Brooklyn 5G Summit April 20-22, 2016 to explore and showcase the latest developments and research aimed at making 5G a commercial reality in telecommunications, machine-to-machine communication, and the Internet of Things (IoT). The invitation-only summit, at New York University’s Tandon School …
Tom Richardson is Vice President of Engineering and leads R&D at Qualcomm’s New Jersey Research Center. Dr. Richardson gave the prestigious Jack Keil Wolf Lecture at Center for Advanced Technology in Telecommunications (CATT) at NYU Tandon School of Engineering on “Liquid Cloud Storage: A New Approach to Large Scale Data Storage”. He talked about new …
Date: April 14th, 2016, Thursday Time/Location: 11 am, 5 MetroTech Center, LC 400 Thomas Richardson, Qualcomm Abstract: Large scale data storage is evolving as the amount and value of stored digital content continues to rapidly expand. Reliable distributed storage systems consist of hundreds to tens of thousands of potentially unreliable storage nodes. To protect the data …
It’s no secret that companies including Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile are eying millimeter wave bands like 28 GHz and 39 GHz for their planned 5G tests and networks. And early assessments indicate that these bands can help speed wireless transmissions to 1 Gbps or higher. But this isn’t the first time wireless players have sought …
In an effort to speed 5G development, NYU Tandon’s wireless research center will provide its channel models and measurements for cellular propagation in the millimeter wave (mmW) band as free, open-source software. The simulation will help product developers understand the behavior and capabilities of the mmW radio spectrum. “Generally, individual companies or universities work on …
The FCC’s Office of Engineering and Technology, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, and the International Bureau hosted a workshop exploring the concepts raised in the Commission’s Spectrum Frontiers NPRM and the state of technological developments in the millimeter wave (mmW) bands. In parallel to the workshop, OET, WTB, and IB hosted equipment demonstrations illustrating some of the …
When the tech bubble burst in 2000-01, the LMDS startups perished. Technology advances, however, could make the high-frequency airwaves prime candidates for 5G. “In the 1990s, with LMDS, mobile data wasn’t mature, and neither was the Internet, and neither was the electronics industry — it couldn’t make low cost, mmWave devices,” said Ted Rappaport, founding …
In 2015, the FCC auctioned off some new space on the wavelength spectrum for use by wireless carriers. It wasn’t a ton of space, but enough to lessen the traffic load a bit. The total price the auction went up to? $45 billion, split by the major carriers like AT&T and Verizon. But what the …
FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel sees a high-frequency future. “We will need to bust through this old 3 GHz ceiling and create new possibilities for millimeter wave spectrum in the airwaves at 24 GHz and above. This is spectrum that is way, way up there. I think of this as the airwaves that will take us …
New York University is making its channel model simulator and measurement data free and open to all, which could reduce the development time of millimetre wave (mmW) technologies for companies looking to use these higher frequencies in 5G-compliant systems. The work on mmW technology and propagation is being undertaken at NYU Wireless, a multi-disciplinary academic …
