A team of researches headed by an Indian origin Engineer have developed a novel technology that can help double Wi-Fi speeds with a single antenna. This is definitely aa breakthrough that could revolutionise the field of telecommunications.
It is to be noted that this was the first time the researchers from the Columbia University School of Engineering and Applied Science, led by Associate professor Harish Krishnaswamy (Indian by Origin) have integrated a non-reciprocal circulator and a full-duplex radio on a nanoscale silicon chip. They have developed this technology that needs only one antenna, thus enabling an even smaller overall system.
“Our circulator is the first to be put on a silicon chip, and we get literally orders of magnitude better performance than prior work,” said Krishnaswamy.
So this might soon bring in a revolution in the world of telecommunations and may change the way smart phones and other electronics are used. This research was published in the journal Nature Communications.
