Tech Alert! This new Wi-Fi chip doubles wireless speed from a single antenna
Scientists in the US have made a major advancement in wireless technology, developing a Wi-Fi chip that only needs one antenna, instead of two, for transmitting and receiving. While this was possible before, the bottleneck with transmitting and receiving from the same antenna meant that each function had to take turns, which throttles the capacity by half. This new chip solves that limitation, and in doing so, doubles the capacity (and speed) of wireless signals with a single antenna. (more…)
