Rutgers University September 24, 2020 The signals from the 5G frequency bands potentially could leak into the band used by weather sensors on satellites that measure the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere and affect weather forecasting and predictions. Researchers at Rutgers University used computer modeling to examine the impact of 5G “leakage” on forecasting the deadly 2008 Super Tuesday Tornado Outbreak in the South and Midwest. Based on modeling, 5G leakage power of -15 to -20 decibel Watts affected the accuracy of forecasting of precipitation (by up to 0.9 millimeters) during the tornado outbreak and temperatures near ground […]

Development of highly sensitive diode, converts microwaves to electricity
Science Daily September 26, 2019 Researchers in Japan have developed a highly sensitive rectifying element in the form of a nanowire backward diode, which can covert low-power microwaves into electricity. Equipment they used consists of a radio wave power generating element. The technology can efficiently convert 100nW-class low-power radio waves into electricity, enabling the conversion of microwaves emitted into the environment from mobile phone base stations in an area that is over 10 times greater than was previously possible. The researchers expect that the nanowire backward diode will be applied in using plentiful ambient radio wave energy in 5G communications, […]
