The US Federal Communications Commission approved a plan to allow unlicensed broadcast TV spectrum to be used by companies to create wireless broadband services that amount to “WiFi on steroids.” This was a hotly contested issue, with tech and electronics companies like Google, HP, Microsoft, Intel, Dell and Motorola, among a number of others, lining up in favor and a coalition of sports teams, theater producers, musicians and broadcasters, among others, opposing the plan.
In a nutsheel broadcast TV spectrum can be used for internet access. It acts in the same manner as WiFi, that is - you have to be close to the signal source for it to work. The advantage of this technology, it’s has a wider range then WiFi.
