NI Next-Generation LabVIEW NXG to be Continuously Improved to Suit 5G Industry
Published2017.06.16 13:42Actively Supports Customization Through Customer Case Presentations
National Instruments (NI) held the NI Test Technology Forum on June 15 (Thursday) at Yang-jae El Tower and presented solutions to engineering challenges in the electronics/semiconductor, wireless communication, and 5G sectors.
The event commenced with an opening address by Kwon Sun-mook, Deputy Manager of NI's PXI & Modular Instrumentation division, presenting "Smart Device Test and Future Wireless Technology." Deputy Manager Kwon noted that engineers who participated in the previous NI Leadership Forum cited rapid time-to-market, technology convergence and fusion, low R&D costs, and standardization across technologies as challenges, and stated, "Beyond the areas NI directly supports, we are providing languages, communication protocols, and NI LabVIEW to enhance compatibility," introducing related case studies.
NI released LabVIEW in 1986 and over 31 years has focused on customer-tailored customization aligned with changing trends. In May of this year, NI launched LabVIEW NXG, an upgraded version of NI LabVIEW. Deputy Manager Kwon stated, "Currently, NI LabVIEW NXG supports only data acquisition and measurement functions, but we will continue to improve it to suit the 5G industry sector."
The electronics/semiconductor session presented ▲cost-effective All-in-One instrumentation ▲solutions for efficient mixed-signal IC testing ▲PXI-based ATE-class Vector test solutions ▲RFIC test challenges and FEM (Front-End-Module) test technology ▲NI semiconductor mass production test solutions (LNA Wafer Test) and implementation case studies.
The 5G/wireless communication sector presented ▲3GPP, 5G New Radio standards and industry research trends ▲5G communication prototyping ▲ultra-wideband channelizer and multi-carrier aggregation ▲802.11ax: High-Efficiency Wireless LAN Testing ▲NFC & wireless charging certification and technology trends.
The same topic NI Test Technology Forum will be held on June 28 (Wednesday) at the Daejeon Convention Center.

NI Unveils System Design Software LabVIEW NXG 1.0
LabVIEW NXG introduces an innovative approach to measurement automation, narrowing the gap between configuration-based software and customized programming languages, enabling users to focus on solving actual problems rather than using tools. Jeff Kodosky, NI co-founder and Business/Technology Fellow, stated, "The initial version of LabVIEW, launched 30 years ago, was designed to enable engineers to automate measurement systems without having to learn obscure programming languages. With LabVIEW, measurement systems could be automated in a 'non-programming' manner. Subsequently, we moved beyond the initial goal of supporting easy and fast measurement automation to focus on enabling more work to be accomplished with LabVIEW. LabVIEW NXG, which is being released this time, was designed with workflow simplification in mind from the early stages of development, making it a product that better serves this purpose. For typical applications, a simple configuration-based approach can be used, while relatively complex applications can leverage the extended graphical programming capabilities of the LabVIEW language, G."

NI Announces 28GHz Research SDR for 5G Standard
National Instruments (NI) has announced a 28GHz radio head series for mmWave transceiver systems. This combination can transmit and receive wideband signals with a maximum bandwidth of 2GHz in the 27.5GHz to 29.5GHz bandwidth range in real-time. The mmWave transceiver system software defined radio (SDR) and application-specific software are compliant with both 3GPP and Verizon 5G specifications, providing a solution for 5G measurements and research. The mmWave transceiver system can operate as an access point or device in all types of wireless transmission test scenarios. Additionally, by utilizing this transceiver system, mmWave communication prototype systems can be developed or channel measurements necessary to understand the characteristics of new wireless spectrum can be performed. Since this software is compatible with previously released radio heads for 71–76GHz, the system can be easily integrated at 28GHz by replacing the RF radio head of the mmWave transceiver system.

SalePoint Signs Multi-Year Partnership Agreement with AWS… Promoting Identity Security that Integrates Even AI Agents
Sailpoint has entered into a multi-year strategic partnership agreement with AWS and is moving forward with establishing an integrated governance system that manages both human and non-human identities together. The plan is to consistently manage access permissions in an environment where AI agents are increasing as work execution entities, while applying the principle of least privilege and automated policy enforcement. The two companies plan to jointly expand capabilities to manage the identities of various entities, including AI agents, within a single layer in the AWS environment. This collaboration is interpreted as a move to design security and governance together in corporate environments where AI adoption is expanding.

Databricks Unveils Open AI Security Monitoring 'Lakewatch'
Databricks entered the security market on March 24 by unveiling LakeWatch, an open-source agentic SIEM. The core functionality of this product is to integrate and analyze security, IT, and business data in a single environment to support AI-based threat detection and investigation. The company explained that it reduces the limitations of existing security operations centers, which have had to forgo some data due to high cost structures, and enables large-scale data analysis and automation based on open formats and ecosystems. LakeWatch is currently offered as a private preview, with Adobe and Dropbox mentioned as early customers. Databricks also announced an expanded partnership with Anthropic as well as the acquisition of Antimatter and SiftD.ai.
