Wifi infrared transmits 112 GB per second

Dutch researchers' new wireless broadcast system allows users to download three HD quality movies in just one second.

Researchers at Eindhoven University of Technology in the Netherlands say their infrared emitting devices can transfer data 300 times faster than current systems, Reuters reported on Aug. 14.

This new wireless transmitter can transfer data up to 300 times faster than current systems.

Each infrared beam is a data channel that uses a frequency of about 200 terahertz, which is thousands of times higher than the current wireless network's wireless signal, allowing for increased transmission capacity. "The achievement we've achieved is delivering 112 GB per second," said Professor Ton Koonen. This speed allows the device to load three high-quality movies in just one second.

The center antennas mounted on the ceiling emit multiple wavelengths in different directions to ensure connectivity when the user moves. Each electronic device connects to a specific wavelength emanating from an antenna to help ensure the transfer rate due to its non-shared capacity.

The way to transmit infrared beams to electronic devices is through feedback radio signals that help save energy. The security of the system is enhanced by the non-penetrating light. The team expects to replicate this technology in the next five years.
