What secret project Google is testing in the desert of New Mexico? – Newspaper Zocalo

RT | New Mexico .- The sophisticated project called Skybender takes place in the desert in the US state of New Mexico, Spaceport in America (New Mexico Spaceport Center, in English).

According to documents obtained by the Guardian, the technology giant built last year and several transceivers prototype is being tested in several unmanned objects.

In the framework of the ways to provide high-speed Internet, 5G generation from the air are studied. Thus, the signal is expected to be issued by drones that work with solar energy.

The technology developed is based on millimeter waves that need to transmit gigabits of data every second. In addition, to make the Internet faster, Google seeks to provide access to everyone.

“The great advantage of millimeter waves is access to new spectrum, because the existing mobile spectrum is overloaded , is full, “explains Jacques Rudell, professor of electrical engineering at the University of Washington in Seattle who specializes in this technology.

However, the transmission range of millimeter waves is less than the mobile phone signals, barrier facing Google specialists to carry out the ambitious project.
