Abstract :
The 60-GHz band is a free/unlicensed band which features a large amount of bandwidth and a large worldwide overlap. The large bandwidth means that a very high volume of information can be transmitted wirelessly. The large worldwide overlap results in interoperability around the globe. Multiple applications can benefit from this—wireless HDTV, wireless laptop docking stations, extremely fast downloading of files via wireless Gigabit Ethernet, wireless USB or other protocols, wireless telecommunications backhauls, etc.
