  1. What The Rapid Commercialization Of Microwave And mm-Wave Spectrum Means For The Defense Industry 9/5/2017

    As 5G technologies bring commercial applications into the microwave and mm-Wave bands, new challenges must be met to provide safety and security to armed forces and civilians alike.

  2. A Better Way To Market Internet Of Things: Smart Home Butler 6/30/2017

    The smart home revolution has taken a lot longer to get up and running due to the disagreements over what protocols and platforms should be used in the base technologies, as well as the poor choices in consumer words like “smart home” and “IoT.” 

  3. The Role Of Sensors For The Connected Car 3/9/2017

    This white paper covers relevant trends and examples of innovative automotive sensors that support closed-loop control functions in exhaust gas after-treatment, transmission, and battery monitoring.

  4. Engineering The Internet Of Things: Wearables And Medical Devices 1/26/2017

    Successful medical device and pharmaceutical companies are using engineering simulation to develop systems that ensure high reliability, provide data privacy, and achieve regulatory compliance quickly.

  5. Strengthening Security In Embedded IoT Solutions 7/29/2016

    On the front line of the most frequently attacked IoT solutions are resource-limited embedded devices. These devices, unlike their PC or Internet counterparts, need to have their own unique security methods to defend their ever growing platforms. 

  6. Simulating Vibration, Impact And Fatigue For The IoT 7/13/2016

    In order to design autonomous drones, wearables, self-driving automobiles, or smart industrial equipment using the Internet of Things (IoT), engineers need to take into account the amount of stress these products will encounter in harsh conditions. Many types of damage can have negative impacts like shortening the lifespan, causing warranty or repair expenses, and increasing liability risk. ANSYS simulation is created to help identify potential product failure early in the design process, which enables the anticipation of potential design problems and optimizes each product. This article describes the advantages of using ANSYS simulation for simulating severe conditions such as vibration, impact, and fatigue, with examples and images.

  7. How To Right-Size Your Wireless Testing 5/12/2016

    In a world that runs on wireless devices and connections, wireless testing is increasingly important. Here is a "right-sizing" approach to managing trade-offs in testing methods and complexity to do what is necessary without breaking your budget.

  8. M2M In An LTE World 1/14/2016

    The “Internet of Things” (IoT) industry has an increasingly significant collection of machine-to-machine (M2M) devices that can communicate with one another without any human intervention. This machine-type communication (MTC) is usually data-only, and typically does not include human-machine interface (HMI) features and functions. This white paper focuses on MTC and how it is applied to M2M devices in the rapidly emerging LTE world.

  9. Taking Your Network to 40/100G Ethernet 7/30/2015

    With the ratification of new industry standards and increased demands on data center throughput, 40/100G Ethernet will be an integral component of the next generation data center. In fact, it is already an emerging influence on how organizations plan, build and operate their existing data center architectures. In this paper, we will discuss the deep impact that this network speed transition has on data center cabling infrastructure, and the decisions that organizations will need to make to accommodate these changes.

  10. Can The Internet Of Things (IoT) Survive Without Satellite? 6/6/2014

    Satellite technology has a pivotal role in driving the growth momentum behind the Internet of Things (IoT) and unlocking the promise of interconnected devices. By Randy C. Roberts, Vice President of Innovation
