New wireless chip provides 2 Gigabit per second connectivity

Researchers from Nanyang Technological University and the Infocommunication Research Institute A * STAR have developed a new high-speed wireless data transmission technology. The chipset, called VIRTUS, provides broadcast information at speeds up to 2 Gbit / s. Low energy consumption makes the technology a potential successor to Bluetooth on smartphones and tablet computers. So, the 1GB chip transmits in just 5 seconds.

VIRTUS can compete with Wi-Fi technology, even 812.11ac. For example, this chip is 1000 faster than Bluetooth (version 2.0). It uses a range of millimeter waves to send voluminous data packets with little power consumption.

Scientists emphasize that for the first time they managed to get an integrated three-component chip operating at 60 GHz with low power consumption. The product has already been issued 16 international patents. So we are waiting for devices on which you can watch streaming FullHD video.
