Houston Texas Appliance Parts: AI-Powered Chip Design Goes Mainstream
Houston Texas Appliance Parts
AI-Powered Chip Design Goes Mainstream
by Houston Texas Appliance Parts on Friday 10 February 2023 03:21 PM UTC-05
AI in chip design has gone mainstream, with Synopsys' AI-powered DSO (design space optimization) tool reaching 100 commercial tapeouts.
The company's DSO was released in 2020, with its first commercial tapeout in August 2021. The tool uses reinforcement learning to tackle physical layout optimization—that is, all the physical aspects of chip design.
"This technology has seen very fast adoption over the past two and a half years," Stelios Diamantidis, distinguished architect at Synopsys, told EE Times. "Importantly, [the 100 tapeouts] are across design nodes, across vertical markets and with very high coverage of the semiconductor leaders."
Synopsys expects "hundreds" more tapeouts this year, according to Diamantidis. The EDA company is working with customers designing cutting-edge chips, including CPUs, GPUs and AI accelerators, with new applications continuing to emerge.
Stelios Diamantidis (Source: Synopsys)
Synopsys customer SK Hynix was able to not only increase productivity using DSO, but also reduced die size for one of its designs by 5%. This 5% silicon area improvement can mean a considerable economic benefit, given that memory products are produced in the tens or hundreds of millions, Diamantidis said.
The tool's first 100 tapeouts includes the first commercial tapeout using the cloud-based version of DSO—an STMicroelectronics 7-nm FinFET design. ST said physical layout optimization for a new Arm core was 3× faster in terms of both time-to-result and engineering time spent on the design using DSO.
"We used the tools to accelerate the physical design of a key IP block that we integrated into an ASIC," Indavong Vongsavady, methods, tools and infrastructure director of the RF and communication division at STMicroelectronics, told EE Times. "As is true for highly complex designs, we don't have a one-size-fits-all approach to the design. We use different tools and approaches for different pieces and in this case, given DSO's ability to let us perform lots of experiments in a short period of time to optimize performance, power and area, it made sense to use it on a particular block of IP."
Using DSO during the design authoring process allowed ST to achieve a higher level of optimization than usual, he said, adding that ST is confident that the product will meet quality criteria during the normal verification and final sign-off process.
"We think that AI/ML algorithms are a good fit when we have extremely challenging optimization problems to solve," Vongsavady added. "The best way to solve these is using a huge number of experiments, and this is where the DSO.ai tool shines because it offloads the burden of mechanical tasks and gives our engineers more time for creative thinking."
The decision to use DSO in Microsoft's Azure cloud was made largely for flexibility and convenience; ST performed tens to hundreds of parallel runs on 16 or 32 CPU cores, peaking at a few thousand CPU cores.
"The cloud enhances our storage and compute capacity, and we exploited that elasticity in our use of the tool," Vongsavady said. "We can access as much server and CPU capacity as we need for massive parallel experiments without the risk of impacting other ST projects running on-premises."
Reinforcement learning
DSO uses a technique called reinforcement learning to tackle physical layout. The problem is complex; place and route alone has a state space of 10 to the power of 90,000. Reinforcement learning is a good fit since it doesn't require masses of data for training. This would mean having access to Synopsys' customers' chip designs, which are proprietary. Instead, the algorithm can be trained by designing chips from scratch and being given a score for how well it does. Over time, the algorithm tries over and over to achieve a better score.
Part of DSO's secret sauce is the ability to also learn from completed designs. In this case, customers would use their own existing designs to train their version of algorithm via supervised learning, as a way of using knowledge of prior designs. This can help the AI converge faster on an optimum design.
While much of the focus of the AI industry in general has been on transformers and large language models lately, Synopsys' Diamantidis said reinforcement learning is definitely the best fit for this application.
"We continue to see tremendous value in reinforcement learning," he said. "Comparing DSO in 2020 to the 2023 version, there is a clear evolution of technology as we ourselves become smarter and more research emerges that we can leverage."
While reinforcement learning will continue to be impactful both in EDA and other applications, it isn't the only horse in the race. Synopsys is interested in possible combinations with other learning paradigms, such as generative AI and graph networks, but reinforcement learning will continue to be the backbone, Diamantidis said.
"We may not have big data, which is generated out in the wild and we get to go out and mine it, but we do have what [machine learning pioneer] Andrew Ng calls 'good data,' which is we understand the origin of the data and can make some assumptions about its classification and behavior and that gives us some advantages that again play to reinforcement learning's strengths."
Synopsys will also continue to develop its statistical learning (non-AI) tools, according to Diamantidis.
Chip customization
Aart de Geus (Source: Synopsys)
One of the key downstream effects of AI-powered chip design is to make the ASIC model more attractive since it means more quickly and easily taping out customized versions of ASICs for particular verticals or customers. Other downstream effects of designing better performing chips on vastly condensed timescales with less engineering resource include prolonging Moore's law by squeezing better performance from older process nodes, and accelerating entry to market for companies without chip design experience.
This is what DSO can achieve today, but what's next for AI-powered EDA tools? Synopsys CEO Aart de Geus gave some hints in his keynote at ISSCC 2022, in which he talked about using AI to more efficiently remaster silicon designs for different process nodes, or different foundries. (This is a future technology; DSO's remastering capability doesn't have any commercial tapeouts yet).
In an interview with EE Times at the time, de Geus said that AI-powered remastering has the potential to help ease fab capability issues. The trick is using learning from the original chip design when remastering the chip for a different node, rather than starting from scratch.
"It was quite remarkable how the learning from [a tapeout at] N40 was absolutely still applicable in N10, which is 3 nodes more advanced," he said. "This tells me that certain characteristics of the design really determine its essence: its bottlenecks, what makes the speed, what makes the power and so on."
Versus a human-designed chip remastered for N10, the AI-designed version was faster and more power efficient, but also took less time to design.
Experimental results of remastering a design for a different process node. Red triangle is the results of manual design by a team of experts over a period of months. Yellow diamonds are designs produced by an AI with no training on the new target node, but with knowledge of the design on the old node. These results were produced by a single engineer in a matter of weeks. (Source: Synopsys)
"Something else is coming out of these experiments: the notion that if you are using high tech, which is fast-moving, but for products that have a long life cycle, you should start designing some of those products such that if you had to make a new version of it, you already captured the learning or the spec in such a way that in seven years it can be designed more easily," he added.
Not only can AI design better chips than human engineers, but we will need AI to keep up with future increases in device complexity—just like we needed design automation 35 years ago, de Geus said. The number of dimensions that need to be optimized is growing, including speed, area, dynamic power, static power, reliability, manufacturability and yield.
"One way that humans design when they don't know the exact answer is they put in margin," he said. "AI can find itsy bitsy little margin pieces all over the place, and so maybe it's a very small piece that it finds, but it finds 3 billion of them, and you can see the human challenge with that."

The reason for those problems can be a worn out key or an ignition cylinder problem and for the two situations, ignition replacement or repair is a task for an adept technician, so we strongly advise not to try to fix the ignition switch by inexperienced individual as it might will induce a greater hardship.
Worn out Mitsubishi ignition key
When you own an old car and you’re taking a number of trips each day, your key can wear thin from abundance of times it was inserted and turned in the ignition lock. As years go by, the key might forget the sharply completed shape that match it to the ignition switch. bruising the key and restrain it's functionality.
Call your Mitsubishi dealer supplied with your vehicle identification number to ask if they are able to cut and program an extra key. If the dealer-ship cannot create, the bad key have to be created by a car key-smith employing relevant cutters, key programmer and diagnostic tools in consonance with the VIN.
Damaged Mitsubishi ignition lock
Bumping into problem caused by the ignition switch, it could be due to the fact that foreign object or dust trapped in the ignition key hole or maybe a loose or detach rod or pin inside the ignition lock prohibiting the switch from turning around. Utilizing relevant ignition replacing, diagnostic and troubleshooting hardware a lock-man has to pull any foreign object or dust from within the key-tunnel strengthen or rekey ignition tumbler pins or even outplace the ignition overall.
Transponder chipped key form
Two decades ago car makers intercontinentally replaced close to all of their vehicle key-lock systems to electronic transponder chipped key, V.A.T or P.A.T keys containing a small scale chip hidden inside the key blade or beak and moreover vehicle computer unit.
While modern key is profoundly practical, replacing lost keys isn't a brisk, very competitive price commute to the local hardware store or dealership. Occurrences as dead fob-key battery, losing your smartkey at the beach or stolrn transponder key, the key must be correctly programmed to the immobiliser and some cars lends arrangement for on-board key copy and will cost you almost 180-600$ depend on year, maker and model.
Mitsubishi key-less entry
Mitsubishi key-less entry allow a driver to lock and unlock the door to your car besides turning on the motor vehicle while avoiding using a key, and beginning at 2007, a lot of Mitsubishi models in the market supplied with some kind of a smart-key system that includes a brief distance transmitter.
With a key-less entry, opening the door to your Mitsubishi is most commonly attained by emitting an RF indication message from a transponder in the keyless device to a car engine control module on an encoded channel when the user simply swinging by within the range of 5 feet of the vehicle with the smart-key in the pocket or on a key ring.
This audio and infrared frequency indication message and the Mitsubishi keyless device system, by the same token fit push 2 start ignition (also called Clutch popping or Bump starting). In this system a car owner is capable of starting up a car  by pressing a push-buttons on the dash-board in lieu of twisting a key in a key-breach.
Copy vs lost car keys
The actual process of cutting and programming a vehicle key differ between individual models and year of the motor vehicle. On several models, on board programming might be applied for extre key programming. This process bypass the obligatory expensive computer equipment and key codes when linking a new transponder key to the motor vehicle. Models with no On board key programming  option need to have a backup key coded employing an appropriate computer equipment that is applicable solely to Mitsubishi dealer or a recognized locksmith.
This programmer costs several thousands of dollars to procured which is one of the main reasons making an electronic vehicle key is at least $60 more then to only cut an old-style metal blade key.
If you misplaced your last car key you will most likely need to tow your car to the dealership or schedule with a car locksmith to come out to your location to reprogram the immobiliser to accept the new key and renounce the old one. Lost key made requisite ownership papers as title, insurance or registration and will costs $185–$250.

RF mixed signal design | Mixed Signal Design

The Combination of Art and Science of RF and Mixed-signal Design
"Over the past couple of years, mixed-signal integrated circuit (IC) design has been one of the most technically tough and interesting segments of the semiconductor industry. Regardless of every advancement that has taken place in the semiconductor industry over that time period, the one continuous requirement is still to ensure the analog world we reside in connects effortlessly with the digital world of computing, a requirement particularly driven by the existing prevalent mobile environment and the swiftly emerging Internet of Things (IoT) "re-evolution" of RF and Mixed-signal Design.
Digital and memory ICs comprise about two-thirds of today's approximately $320 billion worldwide semiconductor market. These ICs are driven by Moore's Law and advanced CMOS process technology, which lowers the cost and enhances the integration of semiconductor devices annually. Discrete and analog semiconductors represent about one-fifth of the global semiconductor market and are mostly served by older semiconductor process technologies as core analog parts are costly to manufacture in newer process nodes.
Mixed-signal ICs account for about one-tenth of the global semiconductor market. This approximation relies on how you count a mixed-signal IC, which could be specified as a semiconductor tool that integrates considerable analog and digital functionality to provide an interface to the analog world. The archetype of mixed-signal ICs consist of system-on-chip (SoC) devices; cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth as well as wireless personal area network (WPAN) transceivers; GPS, TV, and AM/FM receivers; audio as well as video converters; advanced clock and oscillator devices; networking interfaces; and recently, low-rate WPAN (LR-WPAN) wireless MCUs. Extremely integrated mixed-signal IC solutions often supersede legacy technologies in well-known semiconductor markets when the required functionality and analog efficiency could be accomplished at a reduced expense compared to other or discrete analog approaches. The more crucial part is, a high level of mixed-signal integration significantly streamlines the engineering required by system manufacturers, allowing them to concentrate on their core applications and reach the market much faster.
Designing Mixed-signal ICS:
Mixed-signal ICs are hard to design and manufacture, specifically if they consist of RF capability. A huge standalone analog and discrete IC market exist since analog integration with digital ICs is not an easy, simple process. Analog and RF design has frequently been referred to as "black art" due to the fact that a lot of it is done usually by experimentation and very often by intuition. The contemporary mixed-signal design must always be considered a lot more science than alchemy. "Brute force" analog integration must constantly be avoided, as experimentation is a really costly process in IC development.
The real "art" in mixed-signal design need to result from a deep understanding of how the underlying physical interaction phenomena manifest in facility systems integrated with a robust and elegant design methodology based on a digital-centric method. The perfect strategy combines mixed-signal design and digital signal processing and allows the integration of complicated, high-performance as well as very delicate analog as well as digital circuits without the anticipated trade-offs. The effective capacities of digital processing in fine-line digital CMOS procedures could be utilized to make up and adjust for analog blemishes and alleviate undesirable interactions, hence boosting the speed, accuracy, power usage, and eventually the cost and usability of the mixed-signal tool.
Moore's Law has been incredibly consistent with digital circuit design, increasing the variety of transistors in a provided area every 2 years, and it is still partly appropriate in the age of deep sub-micron technologies. This regulation does not usually apply as well to analog circuits, resulting in a considerable lag in the fostering of scaled technologies for analog ICs. It is not unusual for analog devices to be still designed as well as manufactured 180 nm technologies and above. The fact is that the scaling of the process technology partly drives the area and power scaling in analog circuits and often comes to be a design barrier. In fact, analog scaling is more frequently driven by the reduction of undesirable effects (such as analytical tool mismatch or noise resulting from flaws at materials interfaces), which is the outcome of quality enhancements of the process itself. Consequently, mixed-signal designers choose to rely upon processes that are a couple of steps behind the cutting edge of process technology, which could still enhance device quality by depending on a few of the most recent technological advancements. To put it simply, the analog facets of Moore's Law fall back to the standard digital approach. The scenario is a lot more dynamic, as well as the digital/analog technology void, could be partly made up if it is still worth the investment of the IC modern technology suppliers.
An ideal manufacturing process node for mixed-signal IC design lags behind the bleeding side of process technology, and the option of nodes is a compromise of a number of factors, which inevitably relies on the quantity of analog and mixed-signal circuitry consisted of in the device. More specifically, a more digital-centric mixed-signal design method allows the designer to utilize advanced process nodes in order to fix one of the toughest commercial issues with analog circuit integration-- the capability to integrate analog to decrease expenses while increasing functionality. Design engineering teams at numerous leading semiconductor firms are proactively pushing the limits of mixed-signal design and attempting to address this challenge with unique solutions where logic gates and switching components are changing amplifying and large passive devices.
The IoT and Mixed-signal Design:
The Internet of Things aggregates networks of IoT nodes, i.e., extremely low-priced, intelligent, and connected sensors and actuators utilized for data collection and tracking in myriad applications that enhance energy efficiency, security, healthcare, environmental monitoring, industrial processes controls, transportation, and livability in generally. IoT nodes are forecasted to reach 50 billion devices by 2020, and perhaps getting to the one trillion thresholds just a couple of years later on. These astronomical market numbers pose significant restrictions in regard to engineering, manufacturability, energy consumption, maintenance, and eventually the health of our environment. Along with being offered in astonishingly high quantities, all these IoT nodes need to be really small, energy-efficient, and secure, and they are normally not easily accessible to customers for maintenance. IoT nodes frequently require to run with extremely small coin cell batteries for years or even more, or perhaps counting on energy scavenging strategies.
These application needs to make the IoT node the utmost prospect for extremely innovative digital-centric mixed-signal design methods. The optimal IoT node will need modern mixed-signal circuits to interface to actuators and sensors. They need to consist of RF connectivity, usage of really power-efficient wireless protocols, and need marginal external elements. They likewise need to consist of power converters to optimize power efficiency and manage various battery chemistries or energy sources, all characteristics generally accessible with mature process nodes. At the same time, these IoT nodes will require reasonably complicated, ultra-low-power computing resources and memories to store and execute applications and network protocol software, which is much better addressed with finer technologies. The present instantiation of such a paradigm is a mixed-signal IC that is commonly known as a wireless MCU: an easy-to-use, small-footprint, energy-efficient, and highly integrated connected computing device with sensing and actuating capabilities.
RF and Mixed-signal Design, the spreading of ultra-low-power wireless MCUs are crucial to the innovation of the IoT. Wireless MCUs supply the minds, sensing, and connectivity for IoT nodes, from wireless security sensors to digital lighting controls. The combination of art as well as science for mixed-signal design is the vital enabler for the growth of next-generation wireless MCUs that link the analog, RF, as well as digital worlds and maximal advantage of the power of Moore's Law, without concessions in efficiency, cost, power consumption, or size.

Q&A with Marc Tayer about the History of Digital Television | Soukacatv.com
As hard as it is to imagine, digital television began around 1990 and has pretty much pushed analog out of the picture by today. In fact, it’s a little hard to imagine what television was like without all the digital tools and standards that we have today.
One of the important companies in the history of digital television was General Instruments, which was one of the primary organizations working on digital video compression standards. Deeply involved in the cable TV industry, GI provided modulators, amplifiers and conditional access products for cable distribution.
Marc Tayer was working for GI in 1989 when he was told by his division president that he had a new job—to bring GI’s new digital TV technology out of its R&D labs and turn it into a business. He remained involved in the digital TV business as it evolved over the next 25 years, including the broadband Internet phase. Along the way, he had many different positions at GI/Motorola, mostly in business development and marketing.
Tayer recently published a book on the history of digital television, titled “Televisionaries: Inside the Chaos and Innovation of the Digital Revolution.”
HDMI Encoder Modulator,16in1 Digital Headend, HD RF Modulator at Soukacatv.com
BE Extra: What motivated you to write this book?
Tayer: From the first day of my involvement in General Instrument’s digital television project, I knew there would be a compelling story to tell someday. Joel Brinkley wrote a very good book in 1997 called “Defining Vision: The Battle for the Future of Television.” But Brinkley’s scope was mostly limited to the FCC process of selecting an over-the-air advanced television broadcast system. Moreover, his book was published before HDTV became commercially available, and also before DVRs, VOD, and the Internet became major factors.
With Netflix and YouTube now in the limelight, it seemed like time had passed by the significance of digital TV’s origins. The story was becoming lost in history. A couple things happened that inspired me to start writing, and I didn’t stop. Fortunately, I had saved a treasure trove of magazine articles, newspaper clippings, and documents from the early days, when it literally felt like we were in a race to change the world. I also had access to a lot of key people that were willing to tell me their personal stories and help me fill in the gaps.
We are now in the 25th year after the invention of digital television. Walter Isaacson’s new book, “The Innovators,” was published in October 2013, documenting the remarkable inventors of chips, software, computers, and the Internet. But he doesn’t cover digital TV. It’s time for the story of digital television to be told!
BE Extra: Where is the industry going?
Tayer: We are living through the most confusing and exciting period ever for the television business. It is unfolding before our eyes. Consumers are being inundated with an overwhelming choice of new technologies and services. Important topics like cord cutting, net neutrality, a la carte content, and 4K Ultra HD are constantly in the news.
It is impossible to understand how everything fits together without the context and framework of where it all came from. The mission of “Televisionaries” is to connect and convey the history and dynamics of these myriad factors in a comprehensive, entertaining, and comprehensible narrative.
BE Extra: Back in 1990, what were a couple of the difficult technical challenges that needed to be overcome to create a digital television standard? How were they solved?
Tayer: For the FCC, over-the-air advanced broadcast standard, by far the most difficult hurdle was compressing the digital video information to such an extent that it could fit within the broadcasters’ 6 MHz UHF channels. GI developed some very advanced video compression algorithms to achieve this, some of which were later adopted by the MPEG-2 video standard. The use of concatenated forward error correction coding was another key area of innovation, enabling better signal-to-noise performance through RF channels.
For GI’s digital standard-definition system, used by content providers such as HBO and ESPN, and by cable operators such as TCI and Comcast, we had to develop a complete end-to-end system, including not only digital video and audio but also digital transmission, conditional access and encryption, and service information. One of GI’s core competencies was systems engineering, but it was nonetheless an enormous challenge to ensure that all the system components played well together in an integrated fashion for seamless delivery to the subscriber.
BE Extra: Looking back at the work done 25 years ago, what is something that was done absolutely the right way? And was there anything that the team worked hard on that turned out to not be necessary or was otherwise a dead end?
Tayer: GI’s basic idea of designing a highly asymmetric video compression solution has proven the test of time, including with the current-generation coding standards such as H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC) and most recently HEVC. This architectural philosophy, while revolutionary at the time, ensured that encoders could become increasingly complex (and therefore more bandwidth efficient) over time, while the high-volume decoder would remain relatively simple and inexpensive to implement in silicon.
There really were not any significant “throwaway” wasted efforts. In virtually every area, it was the beginning of a continual evolution of improvements, even to this day with Ultra HD video, adaptive bitrate streaming, and transmission methods such as DVB-S2 and COFDM.
BE Extra: Why did you end “Televisionaries” with the epilogue, “2101, A Video Odyssey”?
Tayer: In the last section of the book, I discuss the current state of the industry and prognosticate about its direction with respect to various business, technological and regulatory issues. So in that sense it seemed natural to end the book by fast-forwarding into the future. But I realized the writing style and futuristic nature of “2101, A Video Odyssey” were major departures from the non-fiction genre of the rest of the book. So I made it an epilogue instead of the final chapter. This also provides structural symmetry with the prologue, which briefly recounts television’s analog origins.
Established in 2000, the Soukacatv.com main products are modulators both in analog and digital ones, amplifier and combiner. We are the very first one in manufacturing the headend system in China. Our 16 in 1 and 24 in 1 now are the most popular products all over the world.

Chip me NOT!
Shoot Before This Happens.
Sadly history is littered with examples where people either issued a strong warning to some entity that was ignored, resulting in war (e.g. 1776) or worse, the people didn't issue such a warning and really, really bad things happened (e.g. Auschwitz.)
This is one of those times at which such a warning must be issued, and the issue is not just what it appears folks.
LOS ANGELES — You will get chipped. It’s just a matter of time.
In the aftermath of a Wisconsin firm embedding microchips in employees last week to ditch company badges and corporate logons, the Internet has entered into full-throated debate.
Religious activists are so appalled, they’ve been penning nasty 1-star reviews of the company, Three Square Market, on Google, Glassdoor and social media.
On the flip side, seemingly everyone else wants to know: Is this what real life is going to be like soon at work? Will I be chipped?
“It will happen to everybody,” says Noelle Chesley, 49, associate professor of sociology at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. “But not this year, and not in 2018. Maybe not my generation, but certainly that of my kids.”
I'm not kidding at all about having to shoot before this catches on in any material way no matter whether it's the government or private industry doing it. If such a warning is not issued with the willingness and intent to carry out the threat if it becomes necessary our entire premise of civilization and personal privacy will be entirely destroyed.
Look folks, most of you don't get it because you don't understand the technology and everyone pushing it lies to you either by omission or directly to your face.
Here's the truth about any such implementation: It makes nearly every single thing you do in public instantly and permanently trackable by any entity that can get to the data stream now and forevermore into the future with an indefinite lookback.
How big is the data stream going to be? Enormous and very-nearly complete in terms of specificity but very small in terms of volume per-person, and thus trivially maintainable and searchable.
Let me explain.
You can find these "chips" in modern car keys in terms of the technology involved. It's a small circuit with a coil that, when a magnetic field is passed over it, generates a tiny amount of power. That power is just enough to power a little bit of circuity inside which in turn can return "an answer"; typically a challenge/response of some sort. The amount of power available, due to the size of the chip and thus the coil, is very, very small and thus the range is typically very short -- an inch or thereabouts. This is also why there is no RF exposure risk in having these things in a pet; the power level they can generate is so low that there are no exposure concerns.
That's why the vet passes the reader over your pet to read it; he can't point it at the cat from 3' away and read the chip, but right up against the skin under which it resides, yes.
The inverse-square law and the natural noise in the environment means that trying to extend that range to tens of feet or more is not going to happen. You not only need to ridiculously increase the power being sent to the chip to excite it you must also radically increase the reception gain and manage to get above the background noise level. The scaremongering about you being scanned from tens or hundreds of feet away is nonsense; it won't work.
But, if you can be funneled through something about the size of a door it's a different matter. Now you both can trivially increase the querying power and the reception gain, along with keeping too many chips from responding at once -- and likely manage to read these things without the knowledge or consent of the person who has one in them.
This means that any time you go into a commercial building of any sort, or through any sort of "access point" in a public venue -- a doorway, a turnstile or similar that effectively makes people proceed "single file" due to its size -- it is a near-certainty that the chip can be interrogated and since these are all cryptographic signature devices of some kind you will be placed there with absolute certainty.
That record will never go away and it is trivially searchable en-masse for any sort of pattern recognition that the person who has access to that data wishes to devise, now or in the future.
Cell phones have some of this risk right now in their "location" capabilities, which I've written about before. But you can turn the phone off and that should disable this. You can also refuse to carry one. Once chipped, however, it's both permanent and pervasive and there is exactly nothing you can do about it.
Anyone who has even a modicum of intelligence knows that nothing you do on the Internet is ever really "gone." Likewise as soon as this happens there will be nowhere in any public space you can go where a commercial or government interest hasn't put in place some sort of point you must pass through where your entrance and departure in each and every instance will be recorded in perpetuity and used.
If that's allowed to happen, ever, freedom is utterly, instantly and permanently over.

Facial recognition is already being implemented in airports and other facilities. Most of us have already read about the "social credit score" in Communist China. Facebook, Apple, Twitter, YouTube and other companies are deplatforming individuals, because said individuals have bad social credit... Some banking institutions won't do business with gun manufacturers, because of bad social credit.
Social credit is a term we all better get used to. Actually it's Socialist credit. Everybody better be a good little Socialist. Pay your carbon tax. Accept the Muslim invasion in Euroland and the Latin Socialist invasion of the U.S.. Don't call a spade a spade or a queer a queer or a offend any of the "woke" people.
Crazy, queer, obese, stupid, Islamic radical, Marxist, et. al. are all hate speech terms. And anybody who doesn't (group)think that the white man is evil and white culture is bad, those people are going to get a special "chip"...

But think!
You won't need your drivers license anymore, you won't need to carry around credit cards... No requirement for proof of ID... Just wave your hand at their scanner!!
Any computerized device (cell phone, tablet, laptop, desktop computer, AR goggles, etc) can just be picked up and automatically be logged into YOUR desktop...
Think of the time saving!!
Also think of how easy new cars can be stolen. You know, the ones without a requirement for a physical key - just a radio signal.
Don't worry though! Your personal implant is safe!! We safeguard your data!!

If things continued as they are now I would say his statement is true. Pretty much everyone under 45 see no dangers in this since they know so little about history and the cycle of empires/tyranny, but his statement assumes things will continue linearly as they are now.
I think everyone who reads TF and similar sites know things are about to get interesting in a bad way and depending on the outcome the whole chip thing may be seen equal to the Auschwitz tattoos.

I think this will happen in a manner less obvious but more insidious. As KD has said, the data already exists from numerous disparate sources. Once it is linked and sifted in an efficient manner, there will be no need to cut people.

KD, as always, kudos
Several years ago (1996) we were in the audience at "Talk Back Live" in ATL. Guy (doctor/medical? can't remember) from Finland was on talking about a chip in his hand for "medical purposes" rather than alert badge. Info beamed to device so doctors/nurses would have immediate access to all medical records. I stood and said,"That information cannot be beamed more than a couple inches or it will be compromised. The pulse doesn't stop at a couple feet." Guy blabbed on for a while and moderator (Arthel Neville?) was believing the hype.
Another guy stood, said, "I'm in physics and engineering at Georgia Tech and that gentleman (points at me) is correct. You cannot beam any information without it being compromised." Gives 5 more points why. Arthel started hardline questioning the guy, he became incoherent to the questioning, gone in 5 minutes from the show.
Point is, this keeps coming back and will be force fed our way until it's part of our daily lives. Just like Socialism, kids being indoctrinated... they keep pushing the sheeple with no resistance

I said years ago how this was going to go. Back around the year 2000, I saw in the new that the Mexican Government was going to chip their employees. It was a legit AP article. I even printed the article because i knew people would not believe me. Since then I've seen nothing about it related to the Mexican Govvernment. But as I have said many time this is how it will play out.
Allow me to predict the future on how this is going to go. We are already seeing volunteers, so we are already in the first stage. There is at least one company in Europe that has been doing chipping for a while now and occasionally you will see articles on how great it is, but I think there are a few. So the first stage, like all tech, is getting the volunteers.
As part of that, there will be two subsets that we have not seen yet. One will be convicted prisoners that will take the chip for at home release. This will be praised for reducing prison populations and helping to contribute to better prison conditions. They will increase this to the point of releasing convicted killers and rapists. Occasionally one of these will cut the chip out and go on another spree, but this will be explained away as an exception and Hey still look at all the benefits, we will just improve the process by placing the chip next to the heart or brain or other such non-sense. All the while never changing the outcomes.
The second subset which is just as important is at some point, some parents are going to chip their kids, not teenagers but 3yr olds(maybe infants) to pre-teens. Then some child will get kidnapped by a pedophile. The pedophile will get caught right before causing serious harm to the child. This will make national news for weeks, even months. Because subsequently, there will be other stories of kidnapped kids that are murdered that which could have been avoided if they had just been chipped. This will cause a huge mad rush for parents getting their kids chipped and you will be considered a near criminal if you dont chip your children, see it will socially be treated as neglect. Then later it will be made law as felony neglect.
Once this is law, then getting the remaining adults is easy. Companies will require it, so you wont be able to get a job without one. Then for those that run their own businesses, they will get locked out of the system for not being chipped as well.
This will not happen overnight. This will happen over the next 15 to 20 years. Maybe less. Parents volunteering to get their kids chipped is the key. Once that starts the timeframe will accelerate pretty quickly.
People particularly the younger generation have literally no issue with giving their information away. They see no harm is Googles and Amazons speaker talking systems. They even flaunt their info on whatever the latest social app is. We are headed for a very dark time in history.

Growing Importance of Electrical Interconnects in Manufacturing High Performing, Reliable, Fault/Fail Proof Electronics Drives Global Demand for Connectors
Design improvements, miniaturization and high functionality in a wide range of industries; growth in fiber optic deployments; rising importance of industrial automation; increasing demand for communication devices; and growing electronification in the automotive sector are poised to drive the global market for Connectors to reach US$91.1 billion by 2024.
As critical components in innumerable electronic devices and extension cable assemblies, connectors find widespread use in a gamut of applications and are available in variety of types ranging from Power Connectors, Audio Connectors, Modular (Telephone) Connectors, BNC and UHF Connectors, D-Shell Connectors, Edge Connector, Insulation Displacement Connectors (IDCs), 8P8C Connectors, D-Subminiature Connectors to USB Connectors.
There will always exist a steady and secure market for connectors given that electronics has evolved into the grease that oils the smooth functioning of virtually all sectors of the economy ranging from consumer durables, industrial equipment, and transportation to information technology. The market essentially remains technology driven with trends in design, material section, fabrication and assembly, dictated by technology changes in the electronics industry. The rapid proliferation of electronics in all walks of life ranging from manufacturing, automobile to telecommunication bodes well for the future of the market. With no foreseeable threat to the connector technology in conventional electronics, the future outlook remains fairly steady. Technology developments, over the decades, have resulted in incremental performance improvements making connectors capable of operating in the harshest of working environments.
Digitalization is driving changes in the connection technology landscape in terms of increase in the number of products as well as individual components that should be capable of communication and are essential too. Continuous performance enhancement of microchips is driving digitalization along with efforts towards improving resource efficiency which resulted in a shift towards more compact and smaller devices and products demanding more number of data connections. There is frequent utilization of hybrid cables that combine the data cables, power cable, and also the hoses for hydraulics and pneumatics in a single sheath. Accordingly, connectors are also required to be slimmer. While circular connectors are becoming leaner, modular connector systems are made of several contacts for a variety of cables in a single housing. The demand for enhanced performance of portable electronics is also resulting in new connector designs as well as modifications to established standards of connectors in a wide range of areas from military equipment to fast-moving IoT applications, where product lifetimes run for decades. In the longer-term, embedded systems featuring intelligent MEMS circuitry and developments in wireless and gesture/voice recognition systems may threaten the use of cabled connectors. For instance, a self-contained electronic device that combines computing and I/O functions and voice/speech recognition ability may be able to function without connectors. The drive towards miniaturization and reduction in chip density will also pose challenges for connectors in areas such as contact metallurgy, use of dielectric materials, barriers and contacts.
As stated by the new market research report on Connectors, Asia-Pacific and Europe represent the two largest markets worldwide. Trailing at a CAGR of 6.9% over the analysis period, Asia-Pacific ranks as the fastest growing market led by positive macro-economic cues, expanding industrial, business and commercial markets, robust consumer electronics industry, and increased demand for high-quality electronic interconnect solutions.

He earned a doctorate in electric and electrical engineering from the Tokyo Institute of Technology in 2012. Mizutani researches physical layer technologies in 5G and beyond systems, white space communications, dynamic spectrum access, and wireless smart utility networks. He also participates in IEEE 802 standardization activities.
Dr. Takeshi Matsumura is an associate professor in theGraduate School of Informatics at Kyoto University and a senior researcher in the Wireless Systems Laboratory at the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT).

He researches software defined radio, cognitive radio, dynamic spectrum access, wireless smart utility networks, and broadband wireless access systems. He is a member of the board of directors for the Dynamic Spectrum, Wi-SUN, and WhiteSpace alliances and the author of Simulation and Software Radio for Mobile Communications.
THE CHALLENGE
We needed to develop a comprehensive evaluation system that implements our proposed universal time-domain windowed OFDM (UTW-OFDM) in an actual LTE system to demonstrate feasibility and practicality. Implementing the UTW-OFDM requires modification and/or customization of the modem IC, which is costly and time- consuming. In addition, IC-based implementation constrains the flexibility of the experimental evaluation during which we need to optimize parameters for various conditions.
THE SOLUTION
We developed the Real-time Wave-shaping System shown in Figure 2 with off-the-shelf LTE components. Using this system, we successfully conducted the world’s first demonstration of a UTW-OFDM-based LTE system. Our proposed UTW-OFDM can reduce the OOBE by about 20 dB at channel edges without any throughput deterioration. Our results also showed that the UTW-OFDM is highly compatible with the conventional CP-OFDM since we established the communication link without modifying the receiver. All in all, the proposed UTW-OFDM can help smooth the transition from 4G systems to 5G and beyond systems.
The Real-time Wave-shaping System, which includes the RF transceiver unit, the baseband signal processing unit, and the control unit, can be easily designed and implemented using the NI platform and solutions. We incorporated LabVIEW software as a graphical system design tool and FlexRIO hardware to create a systematic software defined radio development platform. We reduced the development cost by more than 90 percent, and the development period was only three months.
WHAT’S NEXT
We are evaluating system performance using a fading emulator, assuming a real communication environment. In parallel, we will soon perform field experiments to emit radio waves by attaching antennas to the UTW-OFDM- based LTE system.

Flexible Real-Time Waveform Generator for Mixed-Service Scenarios
Providing a Unified FPGA Implementation for On-the-Fly Reconfigurable Waveform Generation
Martin Danneberg; Ahmad Nimr; Maximilian Matthe; Shahab Ehsan Far; Ana-Belen Martinez; Zhitao Lin; and Prof. Dr. Gerhard Fettweis, Vodafone Chair for Mobile Communications Systems, Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, TU Dresden
USER PROFILE
Martin Danneberg received his master’s degree in electrical engineering from TU Dresden in 2013. Since September 2013, he has led the research activities for the EU projects CREW, eWINE, and ORCA as a member of the Vodafone Chair. His professional interests include nonorthogonal waveforms for future communication systems, especially FPGA-based prototype implementations of flexible multicarrier modulation schemes.
Prof. Dr. Gerhard P. Fettweis earned his doctorate from RWTH Aachen in 1990. Since 1994, he has served as the Vodafone Chair Professor at TU Dresden, with 20 companies from Asia, Europe, and the United States sponsoring his research on wireless transmission and chip design. In Dresden, he has spun out 11 start-ups and set up funded projects generating close to a half billion euros.
THE CHALLENGE
Wireless networks operating in unlicensed bands suffer because multiple radio technologies share one frequency resource, which causes cross-technology interference. However, to connect all applications, various technologies must be supported in industrial scenarios. One step toward solving those challenges is to use a unified flexible physical layer (PHY) chipset and connect it with multiple chipsets to interlink the different wireless nodes. Since a single flexible chipset is used, its signal processing parameters must be reconfigured quickly to emulate the different radio access technologies.
THE SOLUTION
The Vodafone Chair for Mobile Communications Systems at Technical University Dresden used NI rapid prototyping SDR tools and the LabVIEW Communications System Design Suite to develop a flexible PHY transmitter based on real-time FPGA processing. The prototype supports waveform generation for diverse systems such as WiFi, Bluetooth and ZigBee, LTE, and 5G. Moreover, the implementation is runtime-configurable, meaning that the frame structure can be changed arbitrarily between frames without delaying the ongoing transmission. Such flexibility is mandatory for optimally using available time-frequency resources by aligning different services in time and frequency without delay when switching between different waveforms.
WHAT’S NEXT
We will verify the implementation in real applications such as seamlessly switching between streaming and low- latency services. Moreover, we will unify the FPGA interface implementation to ease the host-side configuration.

In-Band Full-Duplex SDR for MAC Protocol With Collision Detection
Dr. Sofie Pollin, Professor; Dr. Tom Vermeulen, Solution Engineer; and Seyed Ali Hassani, PhD Researcher, Networked Systems Group, KU Leuven
USER PROFILE
Dr. Tom Vermeulen obtained his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in electrical engineering from KU Leuven in Belgium. He researched in-band full-duplex SDR under the supervision of Dr. Sofie Pollin in the Networked Systems Group. In 2016, as a visiting scholar at UCLA, he worked on simultaneous transmissions and collision detection. He obtained his doctoral degree and joined Proximus in 2017.
Seyed Ali Hassani obtained his bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Arak Azad University in Arak, Iran, in 2008. He then worked as an R&D engineer in industry to gain his professional experience. Hassani earned his master’s in information technology/signal processing from Tampere University of Technology in Finland in 2016. He is a doctoral candidate at KU Leuven focusing on vehicular networking.
Dr. Sofie Pollin obtained her doctorate at KU Leuven in 2006. She returned to imec to become a principal scientist in the green radio team in 2008. In, 2012, she became an assistant professor in the electrical engineering department at KU Leuven. Pollin researches networked systems that require networks that are more dense, heterogeneous, battery powered, and spectrum constrained.
THE CHALLENGE
Because the number of wireless devices has been increasing rapidly over the last year, ultra-efficient protocols are needed to share the spectrum fairly and efficiently. Wireless networks also must satisfy latency constraints and minimize energy consumption.
THE SOLUTION
We exploited the bidirectional capability of in-band full-duplex radio to detect signal collisions and interference. As soon we determined a MAC frame was erroneous, we aborted the frame transmission to save spectrum and energy resources. Basically, full-duplex technology enables a radio to transmit and receive simultaneously and in the same channel. We can use this listen-while-transmit capability to assess the channel in transmission time. In this case study, we implemented a real-time collision detector based on the statistical evaluation of the received signal. Our novel Full-Duplex Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (FD CSMA/ CD) MAC can improve the network throughput fivefold and reduce the energy consumption by 50 percent, as noted in our presentation “Performance Analysis of In-Band Full-Duplex Collision and Interference Detection in Dense Networks,” at 2016 IEEE Annual Consumer Communications Networking Conference. For prototyping, we accelerated our implementation using NI USRP devices and the LabVIEW Communications System Design Suite.
WHAT’S NEXT
We are working on improving the sensitivity of the collision detector using deep learning. We hope to provide experimental results for a network of five full-duplex-capable nodes to support outdoor scenarios.

Bandwidth-Compressed Spectrally Efficient Communication System
Conducting Software Defined Radio Design and Over-the-Air Transmission of Spectrally Efficient Frequency Division Multiplexing (SEFDM) Signals
Waseem Ozan, Dr. Ryan Grammenos, Hedaia Ghannam, Dr. Paul Anthony Haigh, Dr. Tongyang Xu, and Prof. Izzat Darwazeh, Institute of Communications and Connected Systems, Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, University College London
Waseem Ozan earned his MSc degree in wireless and optical communications in 2015 with distinction from the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at University College London (UCL). He rejoined UCL in January 2016 as a doctoral student on a UCL-funded studentship to work on a new signal format developed jointly by UCL and Princeton University.
Dr Ryan Grammenos is a senior teaching fellow in the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at UCL. He graduated with an engineering doctorate from UCL in 2013 focusing on the mathematical modelling and hardware realisation of novel communication transceivers. Grammenos’ research interests are signal processing for communications, software defined radio, and the Internet of Things.
Professor Izzat Darwazeh is the chair of Communications Engineering and the director of the Institute of Communications and Connected Systems at UCL. He has been teaching and researching communications circuits and systems for over three decades and has published widely in these areas. He works as a consultant to various industries and governmental and legal organisations worldwide.
THE CHALLENGE
Billions of devices will soon be connected to the Internet in line with the vision of the Internet of Things (IoT). This means 5G must make highly efficient use of the wireless spectrum. Spectrally efficient frequency division multiplexing (SEFDM) has the potential to make better use of the spectrum through bandwidth compression but at the cost of higher levels of interference. Our challenge was to create a real-time testbed, on a popular platform, for SEFDM to be investigated widely.
THE SOLUTION
We demonstrated the world’s first real-time SEFDM system using USRP RIO and the LabVIEW Communications System Design Suite. The key innovation was in the deployment of a novel real-time channel estimation and equalisation algorithm, combined with a real-time iterative detector. Our system compressed transmitted signal bandwidths by up to 60 percent to offer significant bandwidth savings relative to the multicarrier signals used in current communication systems. By working with various modulation formats, the system allowed for testing in 5G scenarios. We used two USRP devices, one for the transmitter and the other for the receiver. We programmed the transmitter and receiver using LabVIEW and then directly programmed the FPGAs to facilitate speed and flexibility. We implemented over-the-air testing using antennas and completed more demanding tests using a channel emulator.
WHAT’S NEXT
Multiantenna systems will be constructed and bandwidth will be extended to transmit at much higher frequencies (mmWave) and deploy in real-life scenarios with multimedia signals. We will be able to compare these systems with existing wireless standard systems and show their advantages.

World-Leading Parallel Channel Sounder Platform
Building 64×64 MIMO Parallel Channel Sounder Hardware Based on the CDMA Method Using NI PXI Modular Instruments and Post-Processing Software
Haowen Wang and Dr. Yang Yang, Shanghai Research Center for Wireless Communications
USER PROFILE
Haowen Wang is a senior engineer at the Shanghai Research Center for Wireless Communications (WiCO). He received bachelor’s and master’s degrees in computing and software from Fudan University in Shanghai in the People’s Republic of China. As a LabVIEW champion, he has more than 13 years of LabVIEW development experience. His interests include RF data acquisition, channel measurement, and verification and test solutions.
Gui Yunsong is a senior system engineer at the Shanghai Institute of Microsystem and Information Technology (Chinese Academy of Sciences). He has worked as a senior baseband algorithm engineer in Huawei for many years. He has 15 years of experience in wireless communication system design. In recent years, his research has focused on 5G communication demo system design using the SDR platform.
THE CHALLENGE
As the number of transmitting and receiving antennas increases, it is crucial that we capture dynamic channel characteristics and develop realistic channel models to achieve spectrum and energy efficient design (SEED) objectives in future wireless networks. This difficult task includes:
■ Picosecond-level synchronization across multiple channels
■ Real-time storage of multiple raw channels of measurement data
■ High-speed parallel calibration methods to compensate for nonideal channel responses
■ High-accuracy channel parameter estimations based on aliasing MIMO channel signals
THE SOLUTION
We developed our parallel channel sounder platform using NI products for sub-6 GHz spectrum and millimeter wave. It supports 8×8 paths (can be extended to 64×64) and 200 MHz/ch bandwidth under sub-6 GHz and supports 2×2 and 2 GHz/ch bandwidth at the millimeter-wave band. Our platform addresses the above challenges with the following features:
■   Picosecond-level synchronization—To achieve  accurate AoA/DoA estimation, we  designed  a synchronization method to limit misalignment across all TX/RX channels to around a 30 ps reference like NI-TClk technology.
■ 51.2 Gbps parallel data streaming—Our DMA-FIFO-based data-streaming method can take advantage of the huge bandwidth of the backplane bus and use zero-copy technology to effectively reduce delay by avoiding extra copies and state transitions.
■ High-speed calibration method—Different from traditional methods, our MIMO calibration can quickly achieve a MIMO RF channel’s response by transmitting a PN sequence through a MIMO coupler, whose frequency response is measured before, separating at the receiver side only once.
■ www.wise.sh—We set up an online shared open channel measurement database for research. It features all the data measured by the parallel channel sounder platform.
WHAT’S NEXT
In terms of software, we will finish verifying estimation results by comparing the results from measurement with ray-tracing software. In terms of the sounder platform, we will extend the system to 64×64 channels under sub-6 GHz and extend to a 110 GHz channel sounder at the millimeter-wave band.
Distributed Massive MIMO: Algorithm for TDD Reciprocity Calibration
Liesbet Van der Perre, Guy A. E. Vandenbosch, and Sofie Pollin, Professors; Cheng-Ming Chen and Andrea P. Guevara, PhD Researchers; and Vladimir Volskiy, Postdoctoral Researcher, Networked Systems Group, KU Leuven
USER PROFILE
Cheng-Ming Chen received his master’s degree from GICE in NTU, Taiwan, in 2006. He has worked as a baseband design engineer for WiMAX and LTE in ITRI and a senior system design engineer at BRCM, where he mainly focused on Wi-Fi receiver performance verification. He is a doctoral candidate at KU Leuven investigating real-world propagation characteristics of distributed Massive MIMO with an NI testbed.
Dr. Sofie Pollin obtained her doctorate at KU Leuven in 2006. She returned to imec to become a principal scientist   in the green radio team in 2008. In, 2012, she became an assistant professor in the electrical engineering department at KU Leuven. Pollin researches networked systems that require networks that are more dense, heterogeneous, battery powered, and spectrum constrained.
THE CHALLENGE
We need a large-scale Massive MIMO channel model. We know that distributed Massive MIMO exploits diversity more efficiently and can potentially offer much higher probability of coverage, but we still face the challenges of backhaul, synchronization, and time division duplex (TDD) reciprocity calibration. Our work focuses on an algorithm to improve TDD reciprocity calibration for equally distributed collocated arrays.
THE SOLUTION
We created the distributed systems by connecting our two 32-antenna testbeds to the main chassis with a 10 m optical fiber cable using NI USRP RIO, LabVIEW Communications Systems Design Suite, and MIMO Application Framework. We can use the hierarchical-based calibration method to address the huge dynamic range between the channel gain of intra subarrays and inter subarrays. To increase diversity and array gain during intercluster calibration, we can apply maximum ratio combining and maximum ratio transmission. Therefore, unlike when using the conventional method, we can collect all multiple input single output (MISO) gain in one shot during intercluster calibration. We can use distributed antenna arrays to help decorrelate closely collocated users in both LoS and NLoS scenarios.
WHAT’S NEXT
We want to emulate the pilot contamination effect using two cells that share the spectrum. Based on the channel characteristics, we can efficiently assign pilots in two virtual cells and reduce pilot contamination. We can also use frame structure modification to reduce pilot contamination. With the virtual two-cell testbed, we can evaluate the performance in the real world.

Kim was awarded a full scholarship from the Korean government’s Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning (MSIP).
Dr. Seong-Lyun Kim* is a professor of wireless networks in the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Yonsei University. He manages the Radio Resource Management and Optimization Laboratory and the Center for Flexible Radio. He was an assistant professor of radio communication systems in the Department of Signals, Sensors, and Systems at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden.
Dr. Chan-Byoung Chae is the Underwood DistinguishedProfessor at Yonsei University. He was a visiting associate professor at Stanford University in 2017.

*This case study features joint work with Dr. Seong-Lyun Kim at Yonsei University.
THE CHALLENGE
We tried to alleviate the spectrum crunch by canceling out self-interference, optimizing pilot patterns and synchronization, and defining proper decisions based on an opportunistic map (OP MAP).
THE SOLUTION
We created the first implementation of OP MAP-based flexible hybrid-duplex systems in sensor-aided cognitive radio networks to maximize system throughput and spectral efficiency. It offers stochastic geometry-based OP MAP calculation with LTE-based full- and half-duplex radios based on the LabVIEW Communications LTE Application Framework.
SYSTEM SCENARIO
The system features a sensor-aided mode, specifically for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, based on device-to- device (D2D) communications. We can use a full-duplex technique to enable more efficient network sharing. We also can conduct testbed experiments indoors and network simulations for outdoor scenarios. The system uses one sensor-based opportunistic algorithm with random MAC decision making.
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
The system architecture is designed to sense the interference level at a sensor’s location. It converts the sensing database to an OP MAP to determine whether to transmit the signal. It distributes the OP MAP from the server to secondary nodes to allow the operation of hybrid-duplex radios (full-duplex, half-duplex, and silence modes).
WHAT’S NEXT
Now we are enlarging our algorithm to make a more practical implementation that can manage multiple users with full-duplex radios. Also, we are applying it to wideband matters to achieve high system throughput and verifying results by comparing it with 3D ray-tracing software.

An Experimental SDR Platform for In-Band D2D Communications in 5G
Max Engelhardt and Dr. Arash Asadi, Technische Universität Darmstadt
USER PROFILE
Max Engelhardt holds a master’s degree in IT security from Technische Universität Darmstadt in Germany. He works as a student assistant at the Secure Mobile Networking Lab (SEEMOO). His research interests include security in wireless networks, 5G cellular networking, device-to-device (D2D) communication techniques, and software defined radio (SDR) prototyping.
Dr. Arash Asadi received his doctorate in telematics engineering from Carlos III University of Madrid (UC3M) in 2016. He joined SEEMOO at Technische Universität Darmstadt in March 2016 as a postdoctoral researcher. His research interests include 5G cellular networking, millimeter-wave communication, D2D communication techniques, and SDR prototyping.
THE CHALLENGE
D2D communications has been shown to significantly improve spectral and energy efficiency in cellular networks; thus, it is considered a key feature in forthcoming 5G networks. Despite growing research interest on this topic, academia is still lacking important tools to evaluate and further explore the potential of D2D communications under realistic conditions. This is especially true for in-band D2D communications, for which the D2D link must use licensed cellular frequencies.
THE SOLUTION
We based our experimental SDR platform on the NI USRP RIOs and LabVIEW Communications LTE Application Framework, which we extended to allow one eNodeB to serve multiple user equipment (UE) devices simultaneously using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing access (OFDMA). We further extended the framework’s UE design to feature multiple OFDMA-multiplexed uplink transmissions and an uplink receiver. These extensions enabled us to use part of the uplink spectrum for a D2D channel between UE devices. Our system can operate in one of two modes. In Legacy Downlink Mode, the eNodeB transmits each UE device’s payload data directly to the respective UE. In D2D Relay Mode, it sends both UE devices’ payload data to the UE device with the better downlink channel, which then relays the other UE device’s payload via the D2D channel. Our eNodeB features a lightweight, quality- aware scheduler that allows dynamic switching between the two modes based on reported channel qualities.
WHAT’S NEXT
To further improve our platform, we are exploring the integration of outband frequency bands into our system and decentralized scheduling approaches, during which UE devices can organize D2D transmission in the absence of cellular infrastructure.

Wideband Multi-channel Signal Recorder for Radar Applications
Achieving Multisite Synchronous and Coherent RF Signal Acquisition and Recording With a LabVIEW Application When Synchronized to a GPS Time Reference
Bartosz Dzikowski, Marcin Baczyk, Łukasz Mas´ likowski, and Jedrzej Drozdowicz, Institute of Electronic Systems, Warsaw University of Technology
USER PROFILE
Bartosz Dzikowski received his Dipl. Ing. degree in technical physics from Nicolaus Copernicus University in Torun´ , Poland, in 2013, and his master’s degree from the Warsaw University of Technology in 2016. He is a LabVIEW developer and a doctoral student at the Warsaw University of Technology.
Marcin Kamil Baczyk obtained his master’s degree in 2011 from the Faculty of Electronics and Information Technology at the Warsaw University of Technology. His research interests include digital signal processing for radar and radar experiments carried out both in the laboratory and outdoors, including ground-scattering measurements. He works on inverse synthetic aperture radars, passive radar, and radar tomography.
THE CHALLENGE
To conduct radar research, we needed to acquire RF signals coherently from multiple channels. We also had to know how to stream that acquired data to disk for offline analysis or implement online live processing, which involves handling gigabytes of data per second. In applications like multistatic radars, we needed a multisite and coherent RF recording not only to synchronize channels at one site but also to synchronize channels and provide high-phase stability across different sites that can spread over many kilometers.
THE SOLUTION
We developed the wideband multichannel signal recorder, which is a LabVIEW application that coherently acquires RF signals from NI devices. The recorder provides waveform streaming to a RAID disk and enables us to preview signals and their spectra before and during the acquisition. It supports up to 10 measurement channels of NI-RFSA or NI-USRP devices. When we use NI PXIe-6674T (timing) and PXIe-6683H (GPS) modules, we can synchronize the measurement system to the GPS time reference and trigger it precisely at a given time. This allows multisite synchronous and coherent RF recording, which is particularly important in multistatic radar research. Moreover, the application works with the NI-PXImc driver software interface, which allows online data streaming to a processing unit and implementing a real-time radar. NI hardware and our LabVIEW recorder make building a radar faster, cheaper, and easier.
WHAT’S NEXT
Users can create their own measurement scenarios, implement a processing procedure to create an online radar, or stream recorded waveform to a RAID disk and analyze it offline. In the future, more acquisition devices will be supported to increase bandwidth and offer a range of possibilities.
Passive and Active Radar Imaging
Designing and Testing Passive and Active Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Demonstrators With NI Software Defined Radio (SDR) Hardware
Damian Gromek, Dr. Piotr Samczynski, Piotr Krysik, and Krzysztof Kulpa, Research Lab on Radar Techniques, Institute of Electronic Systems, Warsaw University of Technology
USER PROFILE
Damian Gromek received his master’s degree in electronics from the Warsaw University of Technology in Poland in 2011 and has been a doctoral candidate there ever since. He is working as a research assistant, and his research interests are radar signal processing, active and passive SAR, and passive radar.
Dr. Piotr Samczynski received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in electronics and doctorate degrees in telecommunications all from the Warsaw University of Technology. Dr. Samczynski’s research interests are in the areas of radar signal processing, passive radar, synthetic aperture radar and digital signal processing.
THE CHALLENGE
We needed to design and test innovative active and passive SAR demonstrators in a short amount of time. SAR allows us to obtain a 2D image of the ground landscape. The classical SARs are active radars, which illuminate the targets using their own transmitters. The new trend in radiolocation is passive radar technology, which uses an existing net of transmitters of opportunity to illuminate the target for imaging purposes.
THE SOLUTION
By combining NI SDR hardware with commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), we could quickly design and test active and passive radars. During our research, we tested both passive and active SAR imaging technologies. In both solutions, we built the demonstrators using NI USRP hardware. We built an active radar as a frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar. In this solution, one Tx channel emits signals and the second Rx channel receives radar echoes. This results in a 2D image of the ground landscape. In the second, passive radar solution, the USRP uses only the Rx channels of USRP devices to collect reference signals from DVB-T transmitters of opportunity, and we used surveillance signals reflected from targets. We’ve validated both demonstrators in real conditions using an airborne platform as a radar carrier.
WHAT’S NEXT
The higher bandwidth of the generated signal gives the higher range resolution; therefore, the solutions with 1 GHz and higher bandwidths are most interesting. In addition, we’re interested in the higher bands for active radars (for example, X and K bands).

Multiantenna Technology for Reliable Wireless Communication
Comparing Multiantenna Techniques for V2X and UAV Communications Using Live LTE Network Signals Recorded by a USRP-Based Channel Sounding Measurement Setup
Madalina C. Bucur, Tomasz Izydorczyk, Dr. Fernando M.L. Tavares, Carles Navarro-Manchon, Gilberto Berardinelli, and Preben Mogensen, Wireless Communication Networks Section (WCN), Department of Electronic Systems, Aalborg University
USER PROFILE
Dr. Fernando M.L. Tavares received his master’s degree from the University of Brasilia in Brazil and his doctorate degree from Aalborg University in Denmark. Both degrees focused on wireless communications. He is an assistant professor at the WCN at Aalborg University and visiting researcher at Nokia Bell Labs Denmark. His research interests include MIMO, interference management, and advanced transceiver design.
Tomasz Izydorczyk received his master’s degree in mobile communications from Telecom-ParisTech/Eurecom. His thesis focused on unlicensed spectrum extensions for NB-IoT. In 2016, he was a research intern with Intel Mobile Communications. He is pursuing a doctorate degree supervised by Preben Mogensen at Aalborg University. His research interests include the potential use of MIMO techniques for URLLC and UAV communications.
THE CHALLENGE
Multiantenna signal combining techniques like minimum mean square error (MMSE) improve signal reception performance, but they don’t work well in highly interfered scenarios. Alternatively, multiantenna receivers estimating the direction of arrival (DOA) of incoming signals can tell the difference between desired and interfering contributions, which enables efficient beam steering toward the intended direction(s). The emergence of new use cases for vehicular communication presents new opportunities to exploit advanced multiantenna techniques on the user equipment (UE) side. We aimed to experimentally validate the potential of such techniques for vehicle and drone use cases.
THE SOLUTION
We designed a USRP-based channel sounding measurement setup (Figure 1) with a 16-antenna circular array to estimate the spatial characteristics of the radio channel. We used it for measurements in a variety of vehicular scenarios (for V2X, the equipment was installed on a van; for UAV, it was lifted up 40 m high by a crane). The setup was designed to estimate the DOA of live LTE signals so we could derive the spatial distribution of intercell interference in a real LTE network. The measurement methodology consisted of recording I/Q samples and post- processing them to extract the cell-specific reference symbols (CRS) from the LTE time-frequency grid. Then we used the channel estimates to approximate multipath components (direction, power, and delay) from desired and interfering signals using algorithms such as MUSIC and SAGE.
WHAT’S NEXT
We will compare beamforming techniques (digital/analog) with multiantenna signal combining solutions. Then we will use that set of measurements to derive the statistical information for the spatial interference distribution. The goal is assessing the effective benefits of large antenna arrays on the UE side in real scenarios.
Radio Propagation Analysis for the Factories of the Future
Analyzing the Lower Percentiles of Radio Channel Statistics (Ultra-Reliable Regime) With Limited Effort Using Multinode Multiantenna Channel Sounding
Dereje A. Wassie, Emil J. Khatib, Dr. Ignacio Rodriguez-Larrad, Gilberto Berardinelli, Troels B. Sørensen, and Preben Mogensen, Wireless Communication Networks Section (WCN), Department of Electronic Systems, Aalborg University
USER PROFILE
Dereje Assefa Wassie received his bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Jimma University in Ethiopia and his master’s degree in telecommunication engineering from Aalborg University in Denmark. He is pursuing a doctorate degree in wireless communication from the Department of Electronic Systems at Aalborg University. His research interests include measurement system design and the experimental analysis of 5G communication concepts.
Dr. Ignacio Rodriguez-Larrad received his doctorate degree in wireless communications from Aalborg University. He is a postdoctoral researcher at the same institution, working in close collaboration with Nokia Bell Labs. His main research interests are radio propagation, channel modeling, ultra- reliable and low-latency communications, and industrial IoT. He is a corecipient of the 2017 IEEE VTS Neal Shepherd Memorial Award.
THE CHALLENGE
The Fourth Industrial Revolution aims to make factories smart by coordinating disparate cyber-physical systems. Wireless technologies (key enablers for flexibility, cost reduction, and mobility in the factories of the future) must therefore provide reliable communication among the different agents. Because industrial environments are complex radio propagation scenarios, predicting the performance of wireless systems requires measurement campaigns that are extensive enough to capture rare events in the tails of the channel statistics (ultra-reliable regime).
THE SOLUTION
We developed a channel sounding testbed using NI hardware (USRP-2953) and LabVIEW software. The testbed was composed of 12 transceiver nodes with 4×4 MIMO capabilities. With a TDMA transmission scheme, we measured the channel responses between all the testbed nodes at 2.3 GHz and 5.7 GHz carrier frequencies using 24 MHz wideband sounding signals. By performing only a few redeployments, we acquired many spatially relevant samples with limited effort. For example, covering all possible combinations over 24 spatial positions, which takes six redeployments and approximately three hours, we obtained a total of 24 x 23 x 16 = 8832 independent radio link samples. With this number of samples, we obtained insights on the channel statistics close to the 10-4 percentile, which is representative of the 99.99 percent of spatial availability.
WHAT’S NEXT
We will perform more measurements in industrial scenarios. Because we designed the testbed to be flexible, these new measurements can encompass different frequencies, different antenna configurations, and different frame structures for the TDMA transmission. Furthermore, we are developing additional features for experimental verification of envisioned 5G technology components within the H2020 ONE5G project.

The race to own the autonomous super highway: Digging deeper into Broadcom’s offer to buy Qualcomm
http://bit.ly/2zKf1NM
youtube
Governor Andrew Cuomo of the State of New York declared last month that New York City will join 13 other states in testing self-driving cars: “Autonomous vehicles have the potential to save time and save lives, and we are proud to be working with GM and Cruise on the future of this exciting new technology.” For General Motors, this represents a major milestone in the development of its Cruise software, since the the knowledge gained on Manhattan’s busy streets will be invaluable in accelerating its deep learning technology. In the spirit of one-upmanship, Waymo went one step further by declaring this week that it will be the first car company in the world to ferry passengers completely autonomously (without human engineers safeguarding the wheel).
As unmanned systems are speeding ahead toward consumer adoption, one challenge that Cruise, Waymo and others may counter within the busy canyons of urban centers is the loss of Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite data. Robots require a complex suite of coordinating data systems that bounce between orbiting satellites to provide positioning and communication links to accurately navigate our world. The only thing that is certain, as competing technologies and standards wrestle in this nascent marketplace for adoption, is the critical connection between Earth and space. Based upon the estimated growth of autonomous systems on the road, in the workplace and home in the next ten years, most unmanned systems rely heavily on the ability of commercial space providers to fulfill their boastful mission plans to launch thousands of new satellites into an already crowded lower earth orbit.
As shown by the chart below, the entry of autonomous systems will drive an explosion of data communications between terrestrial machines and space, leading to tens of thousands of new rocket launches over the next two decades. In a study done by Northern Sky Research (NSR) it projected that by 2023 there will be an estimated 5.8 million satellite Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Internet Of Things (IOT) connections to approximately 50 billion global Internet-connected devices. In order to meet this demand, satellite providers are racing to the launch pads and raising billions in capital, even before firing up the rockets. As an example, OneWeb, which has raised more than $1.5 billion from Softbank, Qualcomm and Airbus, plans to launch its first 10 satellite constellations in 2018 which will eventually grow to 650 in the next decade. OneWeb competes with Space X, Boeing, Immarsat, Iridium, and others in deploying new satellites offering high-speed communication spectrums, such as Ku Band (12 GHz Wireless), K Band (18 GHz – 27 GHz), Ka Band (27 GHz – 40 GHz) and V Band (40 GHz – 75 GHz). The opening of new higher frequency spectrums is critical to support the explosion of increased data demands. Today there are more than 250 million cars on the road in the United States and in the future these cars will connect to the Internet, transmitting 200 million lines of code or 50 billion pings of data to safely and reliably transport passengers to their destinations everyday.
Satellites already provide millions of GPS coordinates for connected systems. However, the accuracy of GPS has been off  by as many as 5 meters, which in a fully autonomous world could mean the difference between life and death. Chip manufacturer Broadcom aims to reduce the error margin to 30 centimeters. According to a press release this summer, Broadcom’s technology works better in concrete canyons like New York which have plagued Uber drivers for years with wrong fare destinations. Using new L5 satellite signals, the chips are able to calculate receptions between points at a fast rate with lower power consumption (see diagram). Manuel del ­Castillo of Broadcom explained, “Up to now there haven’t been enough L5 satellites in orbit.” Currently there are approximately 30 L5 satellites in orbit. However, del ­Castillo suggests that could be enough to begin shipping the new chip next year, “[Even in a city’s] narrow window of sky you can see six or seven, which is pretty good. So now is the right moment to launch.”
Skinny Signals: To be accurate, receivers need the signal that takes the shortest path from the satellite [green]. Classic L1 satellite signals overlap with their reflections [blue and purple] to form signal “blobs,” which mask the shortest path. L5 signals don’t overlap with their reflections, so receivers can easily find the signal that arrives first.
Leading roboticist and business leader in this space, David Bruemmer explained to me this week that GPS is inherently deficient, even with L5 satellite data. In addition, current autonomous systems rely too heavily on vision systems like LIDAR and cameras, which can only see what is in front of them but not around the corner. In Bruemmer’s opinion the only solution to provide the greatest amount of coverage is one that combines vision, GPS with point-to-point communications such as Ultra Wide Band and RF beacons. Bruemmer’s company Adaptive Motion Group (AMG) is a leading innovator in this space. Ultimately, in order for AMG to efficiently work with unmanned systems it requires a communication pipeline that is wide enough to transmit space signals within a network of terrestrial high-speed frequencies.
AMG is not the only company focused on utilizing a wide breadth of data points to accurately steer robotic systems. Sandy Lobenstein, Vice President of Toyota Connected Services, explains that the Japanese car maker has been working with the antenna satellite company Kymeta to expand the data connectivity bandwidth in preparation for Toyota’s autonomous future. “We just announced a consortium with companies such as Intel and a few others to find ways to use edge computing and create standards around managing data flow in and out of vehicles with the cellphone industries or the hardware industries. Working with a company like Kymeta helps us find ways to use their technology to handle larger amounts of data and make use of large amounts of bandwidth that is available through satellite,” said Lobenstein.
In a world of fully autonomous vehicles the road of the next decade truly will become an information superhighway – with data streams flowing down from thousands of satellites to receiving towers littered across the horizon, bouncing between radio masts, antennas and cars (Vehicle to Vehicle [V2V] and Vehicle to Infrastructure [V2X] communications). Last week, Broadcom ratcheted up its autonomous vehicle business by announcing the largest tech-deal ever to acquire Qualcomm for $103 billion. The acquisition would enable Broadcom to dominate both aspects of autonomous communications that rely heavily on satellite uplinks, GPS and vehicle communications. Broadcom CEO Hock Tan said, “This complementary transaction will position the combined company as a global communications leader with an impressive portfolio of technologies and products.” Days earlier, Tan attend a White House press conference with President Trump boasting of plans to move Broadcom’s corporate office back to the United States, a very timely move as federal regulators will have to approve the Broadcom/Qualcomm merger.
The merger news comes months after Intel acquired Israeli computer vision company, Mobileye for $15 billion. In addition to Intel, Broadcom also competes with Nvidia which is leading the charge to enable artificial intelligence on the road. Last month, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang predicted that “It will take no more than 4 years to have fully autonomous cars on the road. How long it takes for the vast majority of cars on the road to become that, it really just depends.” Nvidia, which traditionally has been a computer graphics chip company, has invested heavily in developing AI chips for automated systems. Huang shares his vision, “There are many tasks in companies that can be automated… the productivity of society will go up.”
Industry consolidation represents the current state of the autonomous car race as chip makers volley to own the next generation of wireless communications. Tomorrow’s 5G mobile networks promise a tenfold increase in data streams for phones, cars, drones, industrial robots and smart city infrastructure. Researchers estimate that the number of Internet-connected chips could grow from 12 million to 90 million by the end of this year; making connectivity as ubiquitous as gasoline for connected cars. Karl Ackerman, analyst at Cowen & Co., said it best, “[Broadcom] would basically own the majority of the high-end components in the smart phone market and they would have a very significant influence on 5G standards, which are paramount as you think about autonomous vehicles and connected factories.”
The topic of autonomous transportation and smart cities will be featured at the next RobotLabNYC event series on November 29th @ 6pm with New York Times best selling author Dan Burstein/Millennium Technology Value Partners and Rhonda Binda of Venture Smarter, formerly with the Obama Administration – RSVP today.

Large lockman enterprises will supply a whole in one residential, safe, automotive or commercial key smith services and even vehicle ferrying and other service and often use unskilled task force that might cause damage to your valuable or cost more for a a convenient task considering he is normally on higher salary position task like safecracking or alarm resetting.
About Honda key-lock instrumentation
Honda is a Japanese automaker of top vehicles exists as a Honda Motor Co subsidiary and one of Japan's greatest vehicle maker of Motorcycles, affluence cars, commercial motor vehicles, Scooters and mainstream vehicles globally. stationed in Minato, penetrated the public in 1946,  Honda mostly use similar sort of eletronic key lock system on most of their models since 1996.
On previous designs, to cut and program a surplus key on the dash-board console, the driver must have not less than 1 programmed serviceable key, still to cut and program an additional key for later vehicle, an exclusive diagnostic devices and key programmer is a must.
Beginning at 2007,  Honda models can use the Smart Entry System for it's a pushtostart ignition or smartkey as a optional or standard instrumentation.
Ignition switch repair
When drivers locking and unlocking the car ignition thousands of times, it is extremely common to put up with some sort of ignition complication and the symptom can be key turn freely in ignition, dashboard security lights are on, ignition key can't turn in the ignition and key wont come out of the ignition and you can't light up your car.  
The reason for those burdens might be a overused key or an ignition switch complication and in each one of those scenarios, ignition repair or replacement is a job for a skillful agent, so we strongly recommend not to make unauthorized alterations to the ignition lock by inexperienced person since it may will bring about a fundamental hardship.
Overused Honda ignition key
If you own an older vehicle and you are taking several trips each and every day, your key can become wear through from the thousands of times it was turned in the ignition lock. As years go by, the key can forget it's closely defined teeth that match it to the ignition cylinder. deteriorating the key and restrain it's functionality.
Call your Honda dealer-ship supplied with your vehicle ID number to check if he are able to form an extra key. If the dealership cannot get this job done, the bad key has to be issued by a vehicle lockman employing relevant key programmer, diagnostic and cutters tools in consonance with the vehicle ID number.
Dilapidated Honda ignition lock
If the complication is due to the ignition lock, it can be in behalf of dirt or foreign object caught in the ignition crater hole or maybe a broken or loose arbor or spring inside the ignition lock blocking the ignition from turning. Utilizing relevant ignition diagnostic, programming and troubleshooting hardware a key-smith ought to extract any dirt or foreign object from the inside of the tumbler rekey or strengthen ignition cylinder or even replace the ignition overall.
Chipped key issue
Since around 2000 and maybe even earlier, most car-makers has started imparting requisite digital immobilised vehicle ECM and chipped keys lock and key in their cars as an extra security to reduce car larceny.
While up-to-date key is extraordinarily convenient, copying isn't an agile, cut-rate drive to the local hardware store or dealership. Occurrences as dead key fob battery, stolrn transponder chipped key or breaking a switch-blade key remote, as well as cutting a blank-key, the key has to be computed to the vehicle by a relevant key programming machine done at the dealer or by a locksmith  and will empty your pocket with relatively 180-600$ conforming to model, year and maker.
