Johanson releases multi-constellation embedded antenna

By Johanson Technology

The need for signal reception of more than one satellite system has become standard practice. As a response to this, JTI has developed a surface mount (SMT) antenna that operates from 1560 to 1605MHz. This means, our newest chip antenna p/n: 1582AT54A0045 can function at GPS, GLONASS (GNSS), BeiDou (BDS), and Galileo. New navigation radio receivers are smaller, more precise and low energy consumption, which means our ceramic antenna size of 15x4x 3.2mm goes very well for portable applications such as tracking systems.

Using 24 GHz Doppler Radar Sensors for Noncontact Human Vitals Detection

By Fujitsu

Health and wellness monitoring is a primary way to manage personal health and awareness for a healthy lifestyle. Many wearable activity tracking devices, smart watches, and smartphone applications collect and analyze data from bodily sources. Other types of devices used to monitor vital signs can help the wearer manage health issues but can limit the wearer’s mobility or cause discomfort if worn continuously.

These restrictions have prompted a growing interest in developing noncontact, wireless devices to detect vital signs, especially for people who are unconscious, sleeping, very young, elderly, or infirm. This article explains why 24 GHz Doppler radar sensors are useful for such devices and highlights some of the features suitable for meeting these applications.
