6G antennas
Experts look ahead to the next generation of 6G antennas
Midway through the development of 5G, we are beginning to understand the fullest extent of the technology’s capabilities – and limitations. Recent breakthroughs such as mmWave have given the industry a glimpse of some of the potential applications that are developing – and more importantly, how they will evolve. Supporting these will increasingly require the power of the next iteration of mobile network technology – 6G. A crucial piece of hardware in this ecosystem will be the 6G antenna, which will need to enable all manner of advanced applications such as high-data AI, drones, and satellite communication.
This Masterclass webinar explains this new era of antennas and its distinctive types such as reflect/transmit array (RIS), LEO, and dash antenna (point-to-point). Our experts will guide you through an overview of over-the-air tests of radiated RF power (TRP) and sensitivity (TIS), and desense – and how antennas adapt to the degradation of sensitivity. Join this Masterclass and gain early insights into the power of next-generation connected hardware.
