Welcome to a Medical Battery specialist of the Anritsu Battery
The increasing data throughput requirements – combined with increasing device density – is a key challenge driving the development of new wireless technologies. For example, the next generation of Wi-Fi, 802.11ax, is explicitly aimed at solving some of these network density challenges – and is billed as high efficiency WLAN (HEW). To address density challenges, one of the proposed features of 802.11ax is dynamic clear channel assessment (CCA). Using this feature, an access point can dynamically sense other nearby transmitters and adjust its own output power to avoid interference with battery such as Anritsu S312D Battery, Anritsu S331C Battery, Anritsu S332C Battery, Anritsu S325D Battery, Anritsu S412D Battery, Anritsu S810C Battery, Anritsu S810D Battery, Anritsu S820B Battery, Anritsu S820C Battery, Anritsu MS2711B Battery, Anritsu MS2711D Battery, Anritsu MT8212B Battery.
In addition to 802.11ax, the requirement for higher data throughput is also introducing new wireless technologies at millimeter wave frequencies. For example, present-day 802.11ad and a future 802.11ay specification will enable higher data throughput at 60 GHz.
Looking toward the future, the use of evolving wireless networking technologies – from 802.11ac to 802.11ax – inherently adds greater product complexity and higher test cost. As wireless devices evolve to address the requirements of the IoT, NI is committed to solving the challenges of wireless test with a platform-based approach that lowers the cost of wireless test.
One of the biggest challenges for IoT device and system developers is providing security for the very small endpoints that will make up the majority of IoT devices and sensors. Traditional approaches of isolating them using a secure gateway or other partitioning mechanism won’t work because these Things are often sensors that can exist anywhere in the world – often not behind traditional security perimeters.
Even the smallest of these devices need to have security built in. Due to cost, size, battery and performance constraints, many of these devices will not have built in hardware based security. But that does not mean that designers should just ignore security. We are providing software based security solutions for very small devices, down to 8 bit MCUs, requiring as little as 8Kb of memory. Providing a scalable security solution that will support these devices is critical. Obviously the security capability will scale with the device, but it is important that it still be included.
Security, like the IoT, is an inherently complex topic that encompasses protecting data at rest and in transit, ensuring secure boot, securely updating firmware, intrusion detection, and certificate management. Consideration must be given to the selection of encryption algorithms, secure key storage and hardware security features.
Against this backdrop of complexity, users expect devices that are intuitive to use and reliable, or put more bluntly, NOT complex.
To successfully manage this complexity, developers can leverage IoT ready platforms, security solutions and software stacks. Engineer’s jobs are not getting any easier, but fortunately there are tools and solutions to help.
