　　高速60千兆赫无线连接终于起飞

　　本文着眼于60 GHz频段超高频无线系统的最新发展。一系列新的设备正在开发的公司如Wilocity和peraso技术，可以提供超高速、短距离的数据链接和行业现在一个产业集团支持的一个标准。

　　今年，新一代高速无线技术终于上市。在过去的十年里，60千兆赫的无线通信的发展是不断上升的——IBM在2006显示了工作收发器，但是2013的第一个月的一些发展已经开始将这项技术推向实际应用。超高速Wi-Fi的承诺已经存在了好几年，但现实世界的应用程序一直是不确定的。虽然有四家初创公司致力于60 GHz技术，但没有人愿意重复上次高速无线标准超宽带（UWB）的斗争。超宽带提供高速连接但两不同规格没有全球标准，并逐步团体如WiMedia联盟和无线USB消失。

　　The 60 GHz technology used for the latest wireless systems provides very high speeds， but at short distances， as the signal is easily absorbed by water and other materials. This means the technology is more suited to short， high-speed point-to-point connections， and the first major target is replacing the HDMI cable that carries high definition and 3D TV signals from the set top box to a large screen TV. However， it is the opportunity to put this technology into a smartphone and other portable devices that drive the current interest in the market – being able to transfer HD video to a TV screen for display is seen as a compelling application.

　　All this is leading to predictions of a market of over 1 billion units a year by 2017， says market research company ABI Research.
