Faster Wi-Fi in Works to Transfer Data

@ 2007/09/03
While Wi-Fi and Bluetooth have emerged as efficient ways to zap small amounts of data between gadgets, neither is well suited for quickly transferring high-definition video, large audio libraries and other massive files. Laskar and other scientists at the Georgia Electronic Design Center have turned to extremely high radio frequencies to transfer huge data files over short distances. The high frequencies - which use the 60 gigahertz band - have been a mostly untapped resource. Researchers say it could one day become the conventional wireless way to zap data over short distances.
