Google to bring wireless gigabit internet fiber to homes

According to FCC filing that was published last week; Google plans to test wireless broadband tech in 24 US locations.

In an effort to explore new technology for delivering fast internet conveniently, Google Fiber is conducting a set of experimental trials in major US states including California, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, North Carolina, Utah and Virginia among others.

"We are working to test the viability of a wireless network that relies on newly available spectrum," a Google spokesman told Business Insider. "The project is in early stages today, but we hope this technology can one day help deliver more abundant Internet access to customers."

While, the FCC filing does not reveal how exactly Google will be making use of technology to give birth to their ambitious wireless concept; we can certainly take a judgment on the essential requirements for the same.

First off, Google will need to make use of a much higher spectrum - something that would need frequencies between 3.3 and 3.8GHz. They would also need a running fiber-optic cable to individual houses.

If this program were to be approved and well-functioning, it would mark another step towards a fast-speed, wireless future.
