TI's More Accurate Laptop Battery Sensor

TI's More Accurate Laptop Battery Sensor 12/30/2004 02:44 PM

Texas Instruments have developed a new sensor for lithium-ion batteries in laptops that should more accurately gauge the amount of power remaining, preventing the always delightful mid-save loss of work. The custom two chip solution is done, but won't make it into actual shipping products until sometime in the middle of next year.

Apple Finalizes iDisk WebDAV Migration

Apple Finalizes iDisk WebDAV Migration 11/06/2003 12:20 PM
In an email to .Mac members, Apple has announced that on December 2, 2003, iDisks will have coverted completely to WebDAV protocol. This means that OS 9 users will no longer be able to use the Finder to connect but will instead need to use a third party WebDAV client. OS X has WebDAV capabilities built in, so OS X users should notice no change. On December 2, affected users (those using OS 9) will be able to download files from the iDisk but will not be able to upload. On Janary 20, 2004, however, the only protocol that will access the iDisk will be WebDAV and all OS 9 access will need to be with a WebDAV client. Goliath is a free, open-source WebDAV client, and is recommended by Apple for those who are still running OS 9.

MBOA Abandons IEEE--For Now

MBOA Abandons IEEE--For Now 01/28/2004 03:36 PM
The Multiband-OFDM Alliance (MBOA), a group that has been trying to set an ultrawideband standard within IEEE, is branching out on its own: The MBOA has failed again to get the necessary 75 percent vote required to move forward with the standardization process. As a result, the group has formed a special interest group to promote its technology. The MBOA blames Motorola for blocking its standardization push. Motorola is promoting its own version of UWB alongside XtremeSpectrum, which Motorola acquired last year, but was originally its separate ally on the matter. Motorola and the MBOA say they'll move ahead independently. Motorola says its chips will be in production this quarter, with consumer electronics products with the chips on the shelves at the end of this year. The MBOA may be just slightly behind, with silicon available in the last quarter of this year and products on the market in the second quarter 2005. The MBOA, however, says it will continue to try to get its technology standardized within the IEEE....

If you're curious about what happened at the IEEE 802 meeting this last week, Daily Wireless rounds it up: From continuing lack of agreement on 802.15.3a (despite the withdrawal of everyone but Motorola, we thought) to new groups being formed and new 802.11 subletters, the IEEE moved mountains of paperwork and specifications around. Daily Wireless provides a cogent summary with links for more information about each subject....

IEEE Approves Most Recent 802.16

IEEE Approves Most Recent 802.16 06/28/2004 12:59 PM
">The IEEE ratified the 802.16-2004 standard, marking a milestone in the development of the standard: Still, there's a long way to go. This article doesn't draw the distinction between 802.16 and WiMax. Now that the IEEE has ratified what had been called 802.16d, the WiMax Forum must still release its final specification for WiMax, which will be essentially a subset of the larger standard. Products built to the WiMax specification that get approved by the WiMax Forum can be assured to be interoperable with other WiMax gear. The IEEE ratification is an exciting milestone but the reality of a WiMax market in the United States is much farther in the future than some writers and industry followers acknowledge. This article notes that WiMax approved equipment should be available early next year. That's true, but basically all manufacturers will build their first generation products to operate in frequencies used overseas, not in the United States. It also remains to be seen how the final specifications--802.16 and WiMax--will affect folks like Alvarion. Alvarion is offering products today that it promises to upgrade to meet the final WiMax specification without additional cost to customers. Glenn described the whole process a couple weeks ago. One additional thought on Alvarion's decision to offer free upgrades is that they've taken a bit of a risk here but didn't have much of a choice. Some analysts have told me that some vendors are feeling a bit of a squeeze as potential customers are deciding to wait for certified WiMax equipment. In the meantime, the vendors aren't selling any gear. So Alvarion took the risk that they could make a reasonable guess at what the final specification would look like. They're hoping that they are close enough that they don't have to make major, expensive upgrades in the future to make the products WiMax compatible....

Agere Wants 500 Mbps out of IEEE 802.11n

Agere Wants 500 Mbps out of IEEE 802.11n 07/12/2004 02:24 PM
As the IEEE considers 802.11n proposals this week, Agere says 500 Mbps should be speed goal: Agere is combining MIMO (multiple in, multiple out antennas) with single and double-wide channel allotments of 20 and 40 MHz. With 40 MHz of spectrum and eight antennas (four transmit, four receive), they expect to reach 500 Mbps of raw throughput. In 5 GHz, Agere says, they could have 11 double-wide channels, while two are possible side-by-side in 2.4 GHz. Agere's proposal appears entirely backwards compatible with the single-wide, 802.11b/g channel and 2.4 GHz compatibility as a baseline....
