This New Device Will Make the Communication Beyond 5G and 6G: Scientists have built a beam-steering antenna that improves data transmission beyond the requirements of 5G, which is a move that might be one of the first steps toward greater network connection in the not-too-distant future. Because of this, access will be granted to a variety of frequencies for mobile communications that were previously inaccessible. A superior alternative to the stationary base station antenna that is presently in use has been created in the form of a beam-steering antenna. This antenna is around the size of an iPhone. It was discovered that fixed antennas are not very effective at higher frequencies, which severely limits their use for long-distance transmission.

The new technology is able to follow a mobile phone in the same manner that a satellite follows a moving object, but it can do it at a rate that is far quicker. The gadget, which was developed by researchers at the University of Birmingham, offers a continuous wide-angle beam and was found to be useful in enhancing the efficiency of data transmission at frequencies extending throughout the millimeter-wave spectrum. These frequencies included those used for 5G (mmWave) and 6G, both of which make use of mechanically guided antenna technologies in order to attain high levels of efficiency.

A recent presentation was given at the 3rd International Union of Radio Science Atlantic / Asia-Pacific Radio Science Meeting, where the findings of the device's experimental testing were discussed.

The newly developed technology has been made compatible with the 5G requirements that are already in existence and are being used by mobile communication networks at the present time. In addition, unlike traditional antenna systems, this one does not need the use of the convoluted feeding networks that are notorious for their inefficiency. It is built on a system that is not too complicated, which not only improves performance but is also simple to produce.

What Is D2M Technology and How It Works?

A metamaterial, which consists of a metal sheet with holes uniformly spaced apart and measuring micrometers in diameter, was used in the development of the gadget by the scientific community. An actuator has been installed in it, which enables the antenna to focus radio waves into highly directional signals. This is made possible by the fact that the height of the cavity inside the metamaterial can be adjusted by the actuator. Because of this, the efficiency of the transmission is significantly improved.


Dr. James Churm, one of the lead researchers, commented on the potential of the device by saying, "Although we developed the technology for use in 5G, our current models show that our beam steering technology may be capable of 94 percent efficiency at 300 GHz." This statement brings attention to the potential of the device.


He went on to say that the gadget has a wide variety of applications, including but not limited to those in the fields of automobile radar, satellite communications, space and defense applications, and aerospace.

पुल जो छोड़ गया हमारा साथ, कानपुर की पहचान

By Ankit Awasthi
  पिछले दिनों कानपुर का 150 साल पुराना गंगापुल टूट गया। इस पुल पर से कई बार गुजरे हैं। अनेक यादें जुड़ी हैं। पुल गिरने की खबर मिलने पर देखने गए पुल। शहर होते हुए घर से दूरी 15 किलोमीटर। गंगाबैराज की तरफ़ से जाते तो दूरी 23 किलोमीटर दिखा रहा था। समय लगभग बराबर। शहर होते हुए गए। जहां से पुल शुरू होता है वहीं पर गाड़ी सड़क किनारे ही खड़ी कर दी। रेती में पुल के नीचे -नीचे चलते हुए उस हिस्से की तरफ़ गए जो हिस्सा टूटा था।  पुल का टूटा हुआ हिस्सा नदी के पानी में धराशायी सा लेटा  था। क्या पता वह गाना भी गा रहा हो -'कर चले हम फ़िदा जान-ओ-तन साथियों, अब तुम्हारे हवाले ये जगह साथियों।' पुल के आसपास पक्षी तेज आवाज़ में चहचहाते हुए शायद पुल के बारे में ही चर्चा कर रहे थे। एक दूधिया अपने दूध के कनस्तर पानी में धोकर रेती में औंधाए रखकर गंगा स्नान कर रहा था। स्नान करके नदी से निकलते हुए एक बुजुर्ग को नदी किनारे निपटते देखकर भुनभुनाते हुए कहने लगा -' यह भी नही कि गंगाजी से ज़रा दूर होकर निपटें। एकदम किनारे ही गंदगी करने बैठ गए।' उसके भुनभुनाने के अन्दाज़ से लग रहा था कि उसकी मंशा केवल ख...

Navigating the Age of Fake News, Post-Truth, and Scams: A Guide to Staying Safe and Informed

By Ankit Awasthi
Navigating the Age of Fake News, Post-Truth, and Scams: A Guide to Staying Safe and Informed In today’s digital age, the proliferation of information is both a blessing and a curse. While we have unprecedented access to news and data, we also face the growing challenge of fake news, post-truth narratives, and an ever-evolving landscape of scams. These issues are not just abstract problems; they have real-world consequences, leading to confusion, panic, and even violence. In this blog, we’ll explore the concepts of fake news, post-truth, and the current scams trending globally and in India. We'll also discuss how to protect yourself from falling prey to misinformation and fraud. Understanding Fake News and Post-Truth Fake News refers to the deliberate spread of misinformation or false information presented as news. This can take many forms, from outright fabrications to misleading headlines, photos, or videos taken out of context. The goal is often to manipulate public opinion, gene...

The iPhone 15: What’s New, What’s Changed, and What to Expect Apple’s newest flagship, the iPhone 15, has finally arrived, and as always, it has generated excitement among tech enthusiasts and Apple loyalists alike. With each new iPhone release, Apple introduces fresh innovations, better performance, and subtle design tweaks. But what exactly sets the iPhone 15 apart from its predecessors? Let’s dive into its standout features, key updates, and what to expect from this highly anticipated device. 1. Design: Refinement with Familiarity The iPhone 15 continues with the sleek, premium design language Apple is known for but with subtle refinements. The flat-edge design, which was reintroduced with the iPhone 12, has been further refined to feel even more comfortable in the hand.  One of the most notable changes is the USB-C port, a long-awaited shift from the Lightning connector. This move aligns with the European Union’s directive for standardized charging ports, and it also brings fas...

Women Safety: A Global and Indian Perspective

By Ankit Awasthi
Women Safety: A Global and Indian Perspective Women safety is a critical issue that resonates deeply across the globe, with the need for enhanced protection against crimes such as rape, domestic violence, sexual harassment, and trafficking. The concern for women's safety is not confined to one region but is a universal issue that demands attention, especially in countries like India, where incidents of violence against women continue to dominate headlines. Understanding the Global Scenario Globally, violence against women is a pervasive and deeply entrenched issue. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 1 in 3 women worldwide has experienced either physical or sexual intimate partner violence or non-partner sexual violence in their lifetime. The problem transcends cultural, economic, and geographic boundaries, affecting women of all ages, races, and backgrounds. Rape and Sexual Violence: In many countries, rape is among the most underreported crimes. Societal stigma, fea...

The Trolling Culture: A Digital Plague on Society

By Ankit Awasthi
 The advent of social media has brought revolutionary changes in communication, enabling people to connect and share ideas globally. However, it has also given rise to a darker trend: trolling. Trolling culture, the act of provoking, insulting, or harassing individuals online for amusement or malice, has become a pervasive issue. Coupled with hate speech, it contributes to a toxic online environment with widespread societal repercussions. Understanding Trolling Culture Trolling often starts as a joke or an attempt to incite reactions. Trolls thrive on anonymity, using it to spread insults, misinformation, and hate. Over time, trolling has evolved from harmless pranks to deeply problematic behaviors, including targeted harassment and cyberbullying. High-profile figures, activists, and even ordinary users have found themselves at the receiving end of trolling campaigns, often resulting in severe mental health impacts. The Effects of Trolling on Society Mental Health Crisis : ...
