In contrast, a method for sending these signals as optical signals and converting them back into electric signals on the receiver side is generally called "optical transmission" or "optical communication." The optical signals are transmitted through optical fiber. Conversion from electricity into ...
Compared with today's 4G and 4.5G (aka LTE advanced, LTE-A, LTE+, or 4G+), the main evolution is that,beyond data speedimprovements, new IoT and critical communication use cases will require a new level of improved performance. For example,low latencyprovides real-time interactivity for se...
After users set up a communication network, new equipment is often added due to the needs of the system. If the wired method is used, re-wiring is required, the construction is more troublesome, and the original communication line may be damaged. The connection can realize the expansion of ...
Optical wireless communication enables high bandwidth. The communication speed of a radio frequency system is severely reduced due to re-transmissions and lost packages. This is worsened by an increasing amount of data due to high-resolution displays and the introduction of red color. This is not ...
Subscribers in remote areas can be brought into a network without the need for stringing new cables or optical fiber across the countryside. Broad bandwidth is possible because there are no wires or cables to introducereactanceinto the connection. Reactance limits bandwidth by preventing signals higher...
What is a Wireless TV? Wireless communication, often just termed 'wireless,' denotes the exchange of information between two or more entities without relying on wired connections like electrical conductors or optical fibers. It represents a break from conventional connectivity methods, heralding a more...
The smart factory is an important test site for the real-world application of 5G. Fixed-line still dominates the Industrial Internet, because manufacturers previously relied on wired technology to connect production facilities. However, with 5G, wireless technology is not only more suitabl...
semiconductor manufacturers have begun using a wider variety of materials that have particularly advantageous properties for certain applications. These include silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) to power electronics in electric cars, indium phosphide (InP) for optical applications, and even...
into a single device called atransceiver. The medium of signal transmission can be via electrical wire or cable -- also known ascopper-- optical fiber, electromagnetic fields or light. The free space transmission and reception of data by means of electromagnetic fields is calledwireless...
A special type of wired media. Optical media also uses light, usually throughfiber opticcables. This method is great for sending large amounts of data quickly and over long distances with very little signal loss. These types of communication media are chosen based on the network’s needs, suc...
