Mobile data rate 1 Tbps

03.03.2015

Researchers at the University of Surrey in the UK have been able to achieve wireless data rates of 1 Tbps. The experiment was conducted in the laboratory of the center for the study of fifth generation mobile communication technologies (5G), created at the educational institution.
The 1 Tbps speed is 65 times faster than the average data download speed of today's 100G mobile networks. Theoretically, this speed will allow you to download XNUMX full-length feature films to your mobile device in three seconds.

Professor Rahim Tafazolli, director of the 5G Innovation Center where the experiment was carried out, claims that they have set a record - no one has been able to transmit data wirelessly at such a speed before. The achieved speed is about a thousand times higher than 1 Gb / s - the value that Samsung managed to achieve in 2013. "The speed we have achieved is comparable to the speed of data transmission via optics, but we did it over the air," the director of the center said.

Tafazolli said that the experiment used a transmitter and receiver developed at the University of Surrey. Data transmission was carried out at a distance of 100 meters. He did not provide further details.

In 2016-2017 The 5G Innovation Center plans to test the technology at the university, over long distances. It will be possible to present the development to the public approximately in 2018, the director of the center assumes. "We want to be the first in the world to demonstrate such speed," he added.

However, serial data speed will not be the most important thing in next-generation networks, Tafazolli believes. Much more important in the development of the new standard will be the stability of the signal and the response time to a request for data transmission. He believes so, based on the fact that the 5G standard will be relevant for at least 20 years. "We don't know what applications we will be using in five, fifteen or 25 years. But we know that their work will largely depend on the speed of network response," he explained.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Class D amplifier with 240W output power and 0,1% distortion 14.03.2006

Texas Instruments and the Technical University of Denmark have developed a Class-D (Class-D) amplifier with 240W output power and less than I/O distortion.

A TI spokesman said that "this is the best known product of its kind, and the output power level is unprecedented for monolithic output stages." To achieve low THD, an open-loop feedback was used, which is preferable to closed-loop, which cannot easily be added to an all-digital signal path.

The amplifier is built on n-channel horizontal (lateral) DMOS transistors, which are used both in the output stages and in the pre-amp stages. Distortions initially affect the timing and electrical characteristics of the prestages. Reduced distortion is achieved by optimizing the size of the transistors of the preliminary and output stages.

The amplifier is manufactured using a 0,4 µm/1,8 µm high voltage BiCMOS process with two aluminum plating layers and one copper layer.

Each half-bridge uses three pins for VDD ground and output, each of which is connected to the crystal by a stranded wire. Two half-bridges are placed on the chip, each of which provides an output current of up to +18 A and a power of up to 244 W at a load of 4 ohms in bridge mode.
