UK white spaces broadband trials a success
This can mean better WI-Fi for people in the UK
UK Story.Hopefully as this notion becomes more in use throughout the world not only will it provide more SPECTRUM but lower the auction prices of spectrum purchases to providers and result in lower user end costs.truenorth Thanks, truenorth.
Hope readers understand this is a rule that can make a big difference. Here in the USA the story came out that the FCC here is going to do the "white SPACE" thing. This could be called a "sea CHANGE" for the WI-Fi industry. Not that there is a lot of meany to be made directly, but it means much more freedom of choice in the market place.

Here is the way some see this. [It is not my idea.] Small rural townships could negotiate with a private firm to bring in Internet via fiber or microwave to then township.. The distribution would be using broadband TV channels that are never going to be used in the rural area. The coverage can be TWO orders of magnitude better than what presently is done with 802.11 FREQUENCIES.

Put another way, instead of a coverage of a one hundred meter radius circle for a hot spot, the coverage will tended to one thousand meter radius circle. In place of serving 7 or 8 users on one hot spot, you could have 700 or 800 maybe. Depending on the population density.

Of course it means new equipment. Yest this also can mean current 802.11 users would get relief from interference, the "white space" frequencies are far away from the present 802.11 assignments. Thus new users would go into the new bands where there is more spectrum available. More power, less interference. But speed would be limited to maybe 3 mega bits per second. Still that would be enough.

For more about the impact t this has in the USA, Google keywords:

Many stories are over a year old, but look for new stories that came out this year. Those are the ones that mater.
