Samsungs 60 GHz WiFi technology will allow you to download a full Movie in 3 seconds. The South Korean company Samsung Electronics has developed a 60 GHz WiFi technology that can send data five times faster than other existing systems. This will allow data transmission speeds of up to 575 megabytes (MB) per second – It is enough to download a 1GB movie in less than three seconds. By using this new Wi-Fi technology, an uncompressed high-definition (HD) videos can be streamed from mobile devices to a television in real-time. The group says previous attempts to use the 60GHz band for WiFi have failed because they used millimetre waves that travel by line-of-sight. They have weak penetration properties, which means they often lose signal and data performance when they hit obstacles such as walls. Using something known as a wide-coverage beam-forming antennae, Samsung says it has solved the speed issues that come with millimetre waves. The Samsung group plans to commercialise this 60 GHz WiFi technology as early as next year, in audio-visual systems, medical devices and mobile phones. And, this technology will also be integral to developments relevant to the Samsung Smart Home and other initiatives related to the Internet of Things. (IoT) #samsung #technology #WiFi #SamsungWiFi
