Google Project SkyBender: Internet 40 Times Faster than 4G


                                                                                               Jakarta - Secretly Google is working on a project at a spaceport in New Mexico. According to The Guardian, quoted from The Verge, Saturday (01/30/2016), the tech giant to build and test unmanned aircraft (drone) solar powered internet in a new initiative codenamed Project SkyBender.
Further rumored that Google rented hangar space of 15,000 square feet of Virgin Galactic at Spaceport America, located near a town called Truth or Consequences.                                                                                                      The main objective of this project seems SkyBender advanced millimeter wave technology, which can transmit data in a number of gigabit per second at speeds up to 40 times faster than 4G-LTE. The millimeter wave technology was considered to be the future data transmission speed is high. Not only that, the millimeter wave is also touted to be the backbone of mobile networks 5G.

    Starry previously a startup called Aereo which is made by the founder, Chet Kanojia, announced earlier this week will use millimeter wave technology to bring gigabit Internet speeds to homes via Wi-Fi.

    Keep in mind, millimeter waves have a much shorter range than the signal current smartphone and easily disrupted by weather conditions such as rain, fog, and snow. But by using what is called a phased array, Google and others have the potential to focus delivery through greater distances.

    Moreover, according to a report in The Guardian, Google is also known to have an agreement with the FCC to continue testing until July. Related costs are spent, Google, among others, Virgin Galactic pay approximately $ 1,000 per day to use his hangar, and an additional US $ 300,000 for Spaceport America to build following the installation of server, millimeter wave transceiver, and other technologies.

  The Guardian also says, SkyBender technically a part of Google Access, a division that houses Project Loon, for the same purpose: to make the remote parts of the world are connected to the internet. But so far, Google has not given any response.
