PASSIVE
Wi-Fi
Now stay connected to
a Wi-Fi with up to 99% of low battery consumption. Getting confused? Here is
the story...!
University of Washington
students BrycKellogg,VamsiTalla,Shyamnath Gollakota
and Joshua R. Smith
invented
a new hardware for getting connected to the Wi-Fi using antenna signals. The
hardware is designed in a way where it will use 10,000 times less power than
present Wi-Fi networking equipment. This system is known as Passive Wi-Fi and it works just like a home router, just
more efficiently. To give some perspective, the state
of the art in low power Wi-Fi transmissions today consume 100s of milliwatts of
power, whereas the technology the student researchers developed consume only
10-50 microwatts—10,000 times lower power.
This may sound crazy but will come into existence within a short
period of time where the world gets connected to a network which has the
feature in decrease of power consumption.
HOW IT WORKS?
