SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 22, 2010 Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced the schedule for its global 2010 Aerospace and Defense (A/D) Symposium Tour. The symposium will start in the U.S. on March 10 in El Segundo, Calif. The symposium, hosted by Agilent and leading A/D industry measurement science experts, will include 21 papers covering five A/D industry segments.  Selected tracks and papers will be presented at each location. An on-site product fair will feature several key electronic measurement demonstrations.

The symposium tracks cover these A/D segments:

• general microwave measurement;
• software defined radio;
• military communications/SDR;
• radar;
• satellite; and
• antenna test.

Agilent’s global 2010 Aerospace and Defense Symposium Tour will provide test system developers and system designers in the A/D industry with the knowledge they need to focus on their most important test challenges. As system technology becomes more complex, assuring readiness gets tougher. The symposium is the ideal forum for developers and designers in the A/D industry to learn more about the latest test tips, tools and solutions.

“We want to deliver the valuable and necessary information to A/D system designers that gives them the tools and test skill they need to get their job done effectively and quickly,” said Ron Nersesian, president and general manager, Agilent’s Electronic Measurement Group. “Through our expertise in measurement science and test processes, we want to free up their time in test so they can address the critical issues in their job.”

The global 2010 Aerospace and Defense Symposium Tour runs through June 2010. The symposium will feature the expertise of several Agilent partners: ETS-Lindgren, Orbit International Corp., AAI and The MathWorks. For dates and locations, visit www.agilent.com/find/ADSymposium.

San Diego, CA – February 23, 2010 — RAYSPAN® Corporation, the world’s only provider of metamaterial and advanced RF air interface solutions for wireless communications, today announced the availability of RAYSPAN® MTM-E™ solutions for long-term evolution (LTE). MTM-E™ is the only antenna solution that can support six or more bands operating from 698 MHz to 960 MHz in the low band and 1710-2170 MHz as well as 2.6 GHz in the high band without requiring any switching elements or matching circuits. MTM-E™ is the smallest LTE antenna platform available, meeting the requirements for portable LTE devices such as mobile phones, laptops, USB dongles, wireless routers and wireless modems. The RAYSPAN® MTM-E^TM solution is the only antenna technology that offers integrated LTE, 3G, Bluetooth and GPS all from a single-feed antenna solution.

“RAYSPAN® MTM-E™ is uniquely suited to the requirements of wireless and mobile standards, and especially LTE,” stated Gregory Poilasne, VP of Business Development at Rayspan. “We are pleased to be able to offer an LTE antenna solution that not only leads the industry in performance, integration, low power consumption and time to market, but is ready for manufacturers today.”

Unlike competing 3D antennas designed for LTE, the MTM-E™ antenna is a simple 2D design in which copper artwork is printed directly on a device’s printed circuit board (PCB) using standard PCB manufacturing techniques. This enables MTM structures to be built using the finest line widths and spacing available for antennas. These MTM structures, along with eliminating the need for switching elements and matching circuits, simplify system integration, lower power consumption, accelerate time to market and allow for smaller handset designs.

The RAYSPAN® MTM-E™ solution complies with the current LTE standard which calls for multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) technology requiring two separate antenna structures that operate over the same frequency band, at the same time, and from the same location. The MTM-E^TM MIMO antenna solution exhibits excellent MIMO gain performance with >50% efficiency values in free-space for handset applications, better than -10dB in near field isolation, and better than 0.3 far-field envelop correlation coefficient. The secondary LTE MIMO antenna also supports 3G diversity and GPS applications.

The RAYSPAN® MTM-E™ solution has been demonstrated for handsets, USB dongles, and integrated laptop applications as well as customer premise equipment such as Femtocell devices and is available for license today.
