In his new role Stuehrmann will assume management of MPD’s worldwide sales and business generation activities. 

 Lake Shore Cryotronics, a leading innovator in solutions for measurement over a wide range of temperature and magnetic field conditions, announced that it will be exhibiting solutions for high-frequency material characterization at the 39th International Conference on Infrared, Millimeter, and Terahertz Waves (IRMMW-THz), Sept. 14–19, in Tucson, Ariz. 

 Rice University wireless researchers have found a way to make the most of the unused UHF TV spectrum by serving up fat streams of data over wireless hotspots that could stretch for miles. 

 Richardson RFPD, Inc. announced the availability and full design support capabilities for three new 650V non-punch-through (NPT) insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) from Microsemi Corp.. 

 Keysight Technologies, Inc. added a 65-GSa/s, 20-GHz modular instrument to its portfolio of arbitrary waveform generators. The new high-speed, wide-bandwidthM8195A arbitrary waveform generator allows engineers to generate digital, multilevel (e.g. PAM4, MIPI C-PHY) signal scenarios and test their electrical and optical links with complex modulated signals up to 32 GBaud and beyond. This makes the M8195A the most versatile signal generator in the industry. 

 ViaSat Inc. has been awarded $54 million from the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) for co-development and qualification of Tactical Targeting Network Technology (TTNT) capabilities for the Multifunctional Information Distribution System Joint Tactical Radio System (MIDS JTRS).  

 dB Control, an international defense electronics manufacturer, is introducing a Ka-band traveling wave tube (TWT) amplifier for ground and mobile radar applications. Featuring an outdoor hub-mount configuration, the dB-3709i operates in the 34.5 to 35.5 GHz frequency range and provides 700 Watts minimum peak output power at a duty cycle of up to ten percent. 

 Jackson Labs Technologies Inc. introduced the LTE-Lite frequency and timing SMT module that combines a GPS receiver, filtered power supplies and a software-disciplined crystal oscillator into a 0.7" x 1.18" footprint GPSDO SMT module.  

 Bird Technologies, a leading provider of RF components, subsystems, test equipment, and services, introduced the compact SiteHawk SK-4000-TC Antenna and Cable Analyzer.
