Wi-Fi 7 for IoT


Introduced in 2024, Wi Fi 7 delivers numerous PHY and MAC layer enhancements for high performance networking, including 320 MHz channels, 4096 QAM modulation, and up to eight spatial streams (8×8 MIMO). While these capabilities are important for access points and high throughput clients, they are less relevant to IoT devices, which typically operate at low data rates with small payloads, const... » read more

AI Moves Out Of The Cloud And Onto The Edge


The impact of AI to date, in the cloud, is undisputed, but the question we must answer going forward is whether we can only expect more of the same or whether there is a fundamental shift looming that will change everything. Today, we will explore historical data to find patterns repeated through the ages to help us see what I will attempt to prove is imminent. A brief history of time… keepi... » read more

Harness Simulation To Connect To Industry 5.0


Industry 5.0 represents a significant evolution in industrial processes, focusing on integrating human-centric approaches with advanced technologies. Unlike Industry 4.0, which emphasizes automation and digitalization, Industry 5.0 prioritizes collaboration between humans and technology. This approach broadens the scope of industrial advancements to include societal contributions alongside prod... » read more

PAwR Simplified: Zephyr And Bluetooth LE 5.4 In Action


If you have ever wanted to see ideas turn into synchronized signals and signals evolve into perfectly timed communication, Bluetooth LE 5.4’s PAwR (Periodic Advertising with Responses) delivers just that. By organizing communication into periodic events, subevents, and response slots, PAwR enables low-power devices to operate in precise rhythm, much like dancers coordinated by a choreograph... » read more
