Project Details
Description
Communications is evolving towards the superfast 5G
mobile internet, while research is already looking forward
to the next generation “6G” to further expand its
capabilities. To make this possible, the operating frequency
of communication hardware gets pushed towards ever
higher frequencies. The exponentially increasing data
consumption from e.g., social media and video streaming, is
driving a similar evolution towards higher speed on the
optical fiber infrastructure. The ongoing R&D in the wireless
and optical fields triggers a strong demand for
measurement equipment to cope with the higher frequency
range and bandwidth. In particular, there is strong interest
by Flemish research groups in a four-channel 110 GHz realtime oscilloscope. This instrument will support research
along the complete research value chain from engineering
physics, device modeling, integrated circuit design, to
characterizing antennas, wireless and optical channels. The
consortium groups researchers from all engineering
faculties in Flanders (KU Leuven, UGent, and VUB) and
IMEC
