Approval for TV ‘white space’ technology that could surpass wifi
āWhite spacesā are gaps in radio and TV frequency airwaves which can be used to carry wireless signals, such as internet connection.
It is appealing to the technology industry because the white spaces in the TV frequency band can travel longer distances, as well as more easily through walls than other wireless technology like wifi or Bluetooth. The green light could see wider-ranging internet connections across the UK by the end of the year, Ofcom said.
