About 3 weeks ago, we wrote about the use of mm-wave for outdoor small cells in a blog post about small cell backhaul and how the market research companies see the explosive growth starting from 2017. At the same time, there is a push for virtualization of the macro cell base stations using Cloud-RAN (C-RAN)…
Vitir’s ‘MergeRF’ technology employs Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF51822 SoC to provide Bluetooth low energy wireless connectivity and roaming in mesh network of multiprotocol bridges Oslo, Norway 2016/12/19 Nordic Semiconductor today announces that Norway-based wireless network solutions company, Vitir, has selected Nordic’s multiple award-winning nRF51822 Bluetooth® low energy (previously known as Bluetooth Smart) System-on-Chip (SoC) for its…
Background Many different industries and application areas make use of standalone devices. These are devices that without need for interactions are used to control local equipment. A good example is a heating control system hidden in the basement of a building, quietly doing its work without any need for interaction with the device. There are…
