After Google's fantastic Project Loon, thanks to which it is intended to bring the internet connection to areas where it has not yet arrived, using balloons that emit WiFi waves and taking advantage of the wind currents, it now arrives Project skybender.
And it is that according to the reputed American medium The Guardian, Google is working to bring 5G connection to the whole world making use of solar drones and millimeter wave transmission.
Millimeter waves are already used by the military since DARPA began to investigate about them back in 2012, however it is now when they are raised for massive use by ordinary people.
These waves offer a crucial advantage over the connections that we currently know, and that is that they use a new spectrum, The problem with the current one is that it is over-saturated by mobile phones, 3G, 4G, LTE, Wi-Fi, Microwave signals, etc ...
These millimeter waves would provide connection speeds 40 times higher than those provided by the so-called LTE, the only negative point is the scope, and that is that these fade with distance, however Google is already working on it.
Apparently it has obtained the permission of the FCC to carry out tests with drones type Solara 50 (like the renders that we present) in New Mexico until July.
This drone created by Titan Aerospace (bought by Google) was also news when it crashed on May 1, 2015 just to raise the flight, an accident that luckily and thanks to the precautions taken by large technology companies did not lead to injuries.
Surely throughout this year we will learn more information about this project, perhaps from Google as it did with Project Moon or perhaps thanks to leaks, in any case, I hope that this type of project will be successful and will bring the internet. to the whole world making use of technologies and clean energy.
