digigod
Note: There is no government oversight or regulation whatsoever. Private corporations have overtaken the earth.
On Thursday, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project released the long-awaited specifications for 5G, including 5G satellites. This gives the go-ahead for commercial deployment of 5G on Earth and in Space.

Mobile Industry Works Together to Deliver Complete 5G System Standard on Time

3GPP TSG #80 Plenary Meeting has approved the completion of the standalone (SA) Release 15 5G specifications. After the release of the 5G NR specifications for non-standalone (NSA) operation in Dec. 2017, another essential step of standardization of 5G has been successfully completed. Now, the whole industry is taking the final sprint towards 5G commercialization. The completion of SA specifications which complements the NSA specifications, not only gives 5G NR the ability of independent deployment, but also brings a brand new end-to-end network architecture, making 5G a facilitator and an accelerator during the intelligent information and communications technology improvement process of enterprise customers and vertical industries. New business models will be enabled and a new era where everything is interconnected will be opened up for both mobile operators and industrial partners.

 

More than 600 delegates from the world’s major telecom operators, network, terminals and chipset vendors, internet companies and other vertical industry companies have witnessed this historic moment for 5G.

Summary:
We know that there is a massive literature, providing a high level of scientific certainty, for each
of eight pathophysiological effects caused by non-thermal microwave frequency EMF exposures.
This is shown in from 12 to 35 reviews on each specific effect, with each review listed in Chapter
1, providing a substantial body of evidence on the existence of each effect. Such EMFs:
1. Attack our nervous systems including our brains leading to widespread
neurological/neuropsychiatric effects and possibly many other effects. This nervous
system attack is of great concern.
2. Attack our endocrine (that is hormonal) systems. In this context, the main things that
make us functionally different from single celled creatures are our nervous system and
our endocrine systems – even a simple planaria worm needs both of these. Thus the
consequences of the disruption of these

Gore Featuring 5G and Aerospace & Defense Test Solutions at IMS 2018

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. (June 11, 2018) — W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc. (Gore) continues to enhance the company’s microwave/RF solutions to operate at higher frequencies while performing reliably over time. Gore will be featuring several 5G and aerospace & defense testing insights and products at IMS 2018, June 12-14, at the Philadelphia Convention Center, Philadelphia, PA, Booth #1537.

5G testing has become increasingly complex, with higher frequency test components above 6 GHz and more ports to address. Multiple functions are integrated into a component and frequent calibration is required. At the same time, tests need to deliver highly accurate measurements for faster throughput, less calibration and downtime, and reduced overall costs. To address these demanding requirements, Gore has introduced GORE® PHASEFLEX® Microwave/RF Test Assemblies, Type 0N – the smallest, lightest, most internally ruggedized assembly on the market today for modular, multi-port, and multi-site test applications.

The need for smaller and lighter assemblies will be crucial, as well as their durability and flexibility.

Chris Cox, Gore product specialist

Gore’s product specialist Chris Cox said, “Test assemblies for 5G applications are important. The need for smaller and lighter assemblies will be crucial, as well as their durability and flexibility. Knowing you can trust them will be even more significant for 5G.”

In the area of defense and aerospace, Gore will be featuring its GORE® PHASEFLEX® Microwave/RF Test Assemblies and their airframe assemblies, GORE-FLIGHT™ Microwave Assemblies, 6 Series. The airframe assemblies are lightweight cable solutions that deliver the lowest insertion loss before and after installation, ensuring reliable performance for the life of an aircraft system. The robust construction reduces total costs by withstanding the challenges of installation, reducing costly production delays, field service frequency, and the need for purchasing replacement assemblies.

The testing of aircraft systems is a critical part. “You can’t trust the performance if you can’t trust the test,” Gore aerospace application engineer Chris Ericksen states.

Of the SEK4 million, Sivers IMA will receive SEK3 million for the RFIC and SEK1 million will go to the Institution for Technical Science at Ångströmslaboratoriet at Uppsala University for the antenna.

Vinnova previously funded Sivers IMA and Uppsala University to develop a WiGig (60 GHz) RFIC with antenna, which was presented at the European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP). A second paper will be presented at the IEEE RFIC Symposium in June (2018).

Anders Storm, CEO of Sivers IMA, said, “5G will be a key component in all future telecommunication networks, which was confirmed by the prime ministers of the Nordic countries last week, where they agreed to a new, deeper cooperation around 5G development, with the ambition that the Nordic region should be at the forefront. With this contribution from Vinnova, together with our own investment within 5G, we can now contribute to this vision.”

Dragos Dancila, an associate professor of microwave technology at Uppsala University and the project leader for the antenna development, said, “We are grateful that Vinnova supports the long-term collaboration between industry and university, having already resulted in an excellent experience of delivering a successful technology at 60 GHz. We have again the opportunity to embark on the development of a new communication system supporting the 5G bands at 24 to 28 GHz and to ensure that it is competitive and world class.”

The Angstrom laboratory at Uppsala has an advanced antenna chamber for acoustic and RF measurements, which will be used to support the project.

Vinnova’s mission is to contribute to sustainable economic growth in Sweden by “improving the conditions for innovation.” According to the Vinnova website, “We do this mainly by funding innovation projects and the research needed to develop new solutions. We also invest long term in strong research and innovation environments.”

Tektronix, IEMN Demonstrate 100 Gb/s Wireless Transmissions Using New IEEE 802.15.3d Standard

Tektronix, Inc. and IEMN, a major French research laboratory, demonstrated a single carrier wireless link traveling at a 100 Gb/s data rate. This demonstration uses advanced data coding, THz photonics and wideband and linear devices to enable ultra fast wireless connections in the 252 – 325 GHz band per the recently published IEEE 802.15.3d standard.

“Achieving 100 Gb/s transmission in a single carrier helps to fill the gap between the worlds of fiber-optics and radio. By combining the concept with dedicated architectures and photonic-based THz circuits we are paving the way for far faster wireless transmission than what’s possible today,” said Guillaume Ducournau, an associate professor at IEMN/CNRS/University Lille working on THz communication systems.

The purpose of the new 802.15.3d standard is to provide for low complexity, low cost, low power consumption, very high data rate wireless connectivity among devices and in the future ‘low THz’ bands. Potential applications include consumer multimedia, wireless switched point-to-point applications in data centers, wireless backhaul/front haul, intra-device communications and a wide variety of additional use cases such as rapid large multimedia data downloads and file exchanges between two devices in close proximity.

Achieving 100 Gb/s and beyond requires the extension of carrier frequencies to the millimeter/sub-millimeter range, around 300 GHz, also called the “THz band.” Using a combination of optical coherent technologies and THz transceivers, this latest demonstration showcased the advances being made toward operational wireless links with THz frequencies and optical-equivalent data rates.

The demonstration was accomplished within the framework of several research projects including the COM’TONIQ, Era-net Chistera TERALINKS and TERASONIC ANR projects in THz communications. The French Equipex programs, “FLUX” (high-speed guided fiber/wireless-based advanced data coms) and “ExCELSIOR” (advanced characterization of nano-devices and systems) also supported this effort along with IEMN platform facilities and the RENATECH French nanofabrication network, IRCICA USR-3380. The demonstration was also supported by the CPER “Photonics for society” and contributes to the “digital world” Hub 3 of the I-Site Université de Lille Nord de France.

“Tektronix is delighted to be working in such close collaboration with IEMN on achieving this prestigious breakthrough,” said Dr. Klaus Engenhardt, CTO Tektronix EMEA. “It’s exciting to see our industry-leading end-to-end transmit and receive solution used to help bridge coherent optical and THz transceiver technologies. Advanced test tools are needed today to generate and characterize signals at 100G, 400G and beyond and Tektronix offers a wide portfolio of optical communication test solutions.”

Tektronix has a long history of collaboration with IEMN on THz communications research and most recently supported the first data transmission through a THz multiplexer.

NTT Successfully Demonstrates 100 Gbps Wireless Transmission Using OAM Multiplexing for the First Time – 5/16/2018

Setting a world record, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone (NTT) Corporation successfully demonstrated 100 Gbps wireless transmission using orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexing.

NTT is developing OAM technology to enable terabit-class wireless transmission, anticipating the demand for wireless communications expected in the 2030s. In a laboratory set-up, NTT’s system showed that dramatic leaps in transmission capacity can be achieved using this new principle of OAM multiplexing combined with widely-used MIMO technology.

NTT demonstrated the wireless transmission at a distance of 10 m using the test OAM system operating at 28 GHz. Eleven data signals, each at a bit rate of 7.2 to 10.8 Gbps, were generated and simultaneously carried by multiple OAM-multiplexed EM waves, achieving a world-first total bit rate of 100 Gbps.

Video: How NTT is dramatically increasing wireless data rates

The results of NTT’s experiment reveal the possibility of applying OAM technology to large-capacity wireless transmission, achieving a data rate about 100x that of LTE and Wi-Fi and about 5x that of the emerging 5G standard. Such data rates will contribute to innovative wireless communications technologies for next-generation 5G systems: connected cars, virtual reality/augmented reality (VR/AR), high-definition video transmission and remote medicine.

NTT will present the results of the OAM demonstration at Wireless Technology Park 2018 (WTP2018), to be held 23-25 May, and at the 2018 IEEE 87th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC2018-Spring), an international conference sponsored by IEEE on 3-6 June.
