After the Radar for Icy Moon Exploration (RIME) antenna on ESA’s Juice mission encountered deployment issues post-launch, combined efforts from engineers at ESA, Airbus, and SpaceTech successfully rectified the problem. Suspecting ice formation as the issue, they heated the spacecraft by sun exposure, but when this didn’t work, they continued with the planned antenna deployment, which eventually dislodged the stuck pin and successfully deployed the antenna.

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) are working on designing antennas that can empower 6G technology, which is instrumental in realising efficient V2X (Vehicle to Everything) communications. In a recent study, the team, led by Debdeep Sarkar, Assistant Professor at the Department of Electrical Communication Engineering, shows how self-interference in full-duplex communication antennas can be reduced, and consequently the movement of signals across the communication network can be faster and more…

The company's "standard" customer terminal, the middle of the trio of Project Kuiper satellite antennas at under 11 inches square and weighing under five pounds.AmazonWASHINGTON -- Amazon revealed a trio of satellite antennas on Tuesday, as the company prepares to take on SpaceX's Starlink with its own Project Kuiper internet network.The tech giant said the "standard" version of the satellite antenna, also known as a customer terminal, is expected to cost Amazon less than $400 each to produce.related investing news"Every…

has pulled back the curtain on its first slate of antennas. The terminals, which will transmit data to and from Amazon’s Low Earth Orbit internet satellites, resemble furniture. The largest of the bunch is even the size of a full-blown patio table — it measures 19 inches by 30 inches. That model is intended for enterprise, government and telecommunications operations. Amazon said it will deliver internet speeds of up to 1 Gbps. The standard terminal for consumers has a smaller footprint, measuring 11 inches square with…

Mehul Reuben DasJan 09, 2023 19:47:57 ISTA team of researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has claimed that in a study they have conducted, they found that the human body could be a useful tool to harvest waste energy and use it to power devices in the future, including those used for 6G, the next generation of wireless communication. The human body can act as range extenders, with each individual body, acting as antennae. Engineers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have discovered that the human…

Photo: Michael Smith/Newsmakers (Getty Images)Try to figure this one out: it would appear that somebody is installing antenna-equipped rigs all over the foothills of Salt Lake City. Local government officials are stumped as to who is responsible or what the rigs are for. They also seem to be pretty annoyed to have to keep taking the shit down. “We just don’t know enough at this point to speculate what they are,” Tyler Fonarow, the city’s recreational trails manager, told local news outlet KSL-5. According to Fonarow, the…

There are few things that piss me off more than having a spotty Wi-Fi connection at home, and it seems MSI agrees because the company brought a rather clever router to CES 2023 featuring antennas that dynamically follow specific devices as you walk around your house.  Dubbed the RadiX BE22000 Turbo, MSI's top-spec Wi-Fi router is packed with pretty much every feature you can think of (and probably some you haven't) to ensure you get the fastest wireless speeds possible. That's because while the standard is still being…

Ukraine will receive an additional 10,000-plus Starlink satellite dishes from Elon Musk's SpaceX to help provide internet amid Russian attacks on communications infrastructure, Bloomberg has reported. Financial issues around the terminals have reportedly been resolved, with several European countries stepping up to share the costs, according to Ukraine's deputy prime minister Mykhailo Federov.  "SpaceX and Musk quickly react to problems and help us,” Federov told Bloomberg. “Musk assured us he will continue to support…

There's no better feeling than breaking the shackles of your cable company and cutting the cord. But for many, losing access to network programming can be a bit of a sacrifice for things like local news, live sports, or shows. Fortunately, today's TV antennas are paper-thin, simple to program, and a breeze to relocate at a moment's notice. We've got you covered with the best of them. After extensive reviews of TV antennas including the excellent Mohu Leaf Plus Amplified, we’ve collected top indoor and outdoor…
