The race to build faster wireless networks has just taken a major step forward. Researchers at Tokushima University have successfully demonstrated an ultra-fast wireless connection operating at 560 gigahertz (GHz), reaching speeds of 112 gigabits per second (Gbps). The breakthrough could help pave the way for future 6G communication systems that may one day support […] The post Scientists use mic…

Wi-Wi Is Wireless Time Sync at 1 nanosecond At NAB, I found a demo of Wi-Wi STAMP, a wireless time synchronization protocol that came out of Japan's NICT. Wi-Wi stands for Wireless 2Way interferometry, and it uses the 900 MHz band for picosecond-level time sync, and mm-level distance accuracy, in a tiny box, currently the size of a smartphone. The system is still in development, but existing prot…

Think lighthouse, not laser. In a study out of Rice University, researchers show that carefully randomized radio waves can help next-generation wireless devices find each other almost instantly at terahertz frequencies, with angle estimates finer than one tenth of a degree. The promise of 6G rests on higher frequencies that carry far more data, but those same signals fade fast and need tight, lin…

Metasurfaces explore engineered 2D materials that manipulate electromagnetic and mechanical waves, offering advances in wireless tech. They can power indoor GPS, extend 5G/6G coverage, and enable wireless sensing and imaging. The post Metasurface: Unlocking the future of wireless sensing and communication appeared first on Microsoft Research .

Imagine a world where your light bulbs not only illuminate your home but also provide your internet connection. This is the promise of Li-Fi technology that uses light to transmit data. While Wi-Fi has become a ubiquitous part of our lives, Li-Fi offers a different approach to wireless communication. Li-Fi, short for Light Fidelity, utilizes [..] The post Li-Fi Technology – The Future Of Wireless…
