IoT faces interoperability problems
Despite the swirl of interest in the internet of things progress is likely to be held back by interoperability issues according to speakers at the recent NI Week conference.
NI Week 2014
Particle-collider technology to help NI build time-aware systems
Technology from advanced-physics research institute CERN will form part of National Instruments' long-term strategy to improve the ability of distributed systems to support real-time control.
Custom instrumentation helps build models for more advanced RF amplifiers
High peak-to-average ratios inherent in 4G/5G modulation schemes are driving the circuitry controlling RF PAs to become more modeling-oriented.
Millimeter-wave 5G research instrument hits 1GHz throughput
Nokia Siemens Networks has built an instrument able to handle bandwidths up 1GHz to investigate the use of milllimeter-band radio for 5G communications.
NI aims to bring design and production closer with chip-test plan
National Instruments plans to build an ecosystem around semiconductor test that could provide a missing link between the design process and production.
NI moves Spice to FPGA for faster simulations
National Instruments has developed a kernel for Spice analog simulations that can be downloaded for faster performance on the FPGAs inside CompactRIO hardware.
