LiFi or light fidelity is similar to WiFi and as the name suggests, instead of using radio waves, utilises visible, IR or UV light for communications. The new development kit from Hyperion Technologies is based upon the LimeSDR USB and uses two of these together with optical transmitter and…

Demonstration of a bachelor thesis project is given where a LimeSDR Mini is used in a system designed to prevent UAVs from entering an unauthorised area.

"Kimera can capture any camera connected to your computer," Cruz explains, "hardware encode it with any codec available (e.g. HEVC, AVC, AV1), and transmit over TCP, UNIX Socket, or this GNU Radio Transport Layer."

"The ME1130 training kit is a versatile system that can be configured to work as an offline system for simulation or as a real-time system for over-the-air transmission and testing," says DreamCatcher of the training kit, which features a LimeSDR USB and LimeSDR Mini for base station and spectrum analysis operations.

Users of Lime Microsystems technologies, including the LimeSDR and LimeNET families, are invited to submit brief summaries of their projects and experimentations to highlight the breadth and diversity of the community in Lime's first Field Report Contest.

Free and open source package includes LTE Release 8 support, selected LTE Release 9 features, and full compatibility with Lime Microsystems' LimeSDR family of open software defined radio (SDR) hardware.

"Cloud computing companies have benefited from collaboration on open source," Rader explains. "Telecoms providers ought to be looking at doing the same in 2019 by making infrastructure work for everyone, improving efficiency and opening up networks for all apps on their infrastructure."

"Opportunities for all, regardless of whether an entity is interested in fixed or mobile, 5G, or another technology," says FCC Commissioner Michael O'Rielly of the ruling, which brings additional 5G frequencies within range of LMS7002M-based devices including the LimeSDR and LimeNET families.

Presentations available from the first day of the event include a look at the addition of support for Lime Microsystems' popular open LimeSDR devices, via the open source Lime Suite software, to the OsmoTRX project.
