Computing Technologies for Medical Equipment

by Kevin Morris

As it strives to improve patient care, the healthcare industry benefits from advanced computing technologies in equipment ranging from intelligent, networked patient monitors and handheld diagnostic devices to CT scanners.

In the same way that doctors seek out the latest treatment methods for their patients, healthcare IT professionals are constantly on the lookout for technology breakthroughs to enable a more reliable and secure computing infrastructure.

Intel® technologies are supported by many Intel® processors and chipsets, providing computing platforms that deliver enhanced capabilities including:

  • Increasing software reliability by isolating application code and preventing dangerous 

    interactions

  • Improving equipment manageability through remote diagnostic and repair 

    capabilities

  • Enhancing data security by stopping any device from executing malicious software.

Intel® product technologies are being adopted by medical equipment manufacturers because of their proven capabilities to increase reliability, manageability and security. This solution brief discusses how technologies built into Intel® processor and chipsets can improve the virtualization, remote management and security of medical devices.

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored by Keysight

Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems.
