Researchers creating a new class of 5G millimeter wave transmitter antenna designs that will soon occupy over a billion mobile devices
Researchers have come up with a new class of millimeter wave transmitters by integrating the design of antenna and electronics. This new device boosts energy and spectrum efficiency, which could mean longer talk times and higher data rates in future 5G applications. In addition to these, the device also exhibits improved modulation and reduced generation […]

Microgravity and radiation: Astronauts headed to Mars will face many health challenges
A recent study from researchers of the Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) discovered that microgravity, a condition where people or objects appear to be weightless, causes muscle and bone loss. This may pose a risk for astronauts who will be traveling to other celestial bodies such as the moon and Mars, especially for long periods of time. While scientists have previously […]
