Scientists from the Nanyang Technology University in Singapore announced to have successfully developed a new wireless system based on 60 GHz radio frequencies. If this technology is not really new in laboratories, the new antenna is compatible with mass manufacturing.
Scientists expect to be able to apply this technology for offering short range high speed wireless network for audio video application, wireless USB or data sharing between hardware. Indeed, with such frequency the amount of data in packets is huge. The other advantages is linked to regulations, as this frequency is so far free for use worldwide, unlike Wi-Fi frequencies which are regulated and different from one country to another.
