Scientists twist radio beams to send data: Transmissions reach speeds of 32 gigibits per second

Posted: 16 Sep 2014 10:25 AM PDT

Researchers twist four radio beams together to achieve high data transmission speeds. The researchers reached data transmission rates of 32 gigabits per second across 2.5 meters of free space in a basement lab. For reference, 32 gigabits per second is fast enough to transmit more than 10 hour-and-a-half-long HD movies in one second and is 30 times faster than LTE wireless.
