Gadgetell | Tech News, Reviews, and Interesting Things

Remember the first time you found out that if someone turned on the microwave that your Wi-Fi connection would go to heck?  Maybe you’ve noticed that on certain wireless devices a statement saying that it is designed to accept any interference caused by radios?  Kyocera may have put something together that could make radio interference a thing of the past. 

Kyocera has created two “Surface Acoustic Wave” filters that stop radio interference in the 2.6 GHz range.  This technology is expected to help in the deployment of WiMAX as well as help Wi-Fi.  The “filters are used to separate desired signals in high-frequency bands.”  Less interference means a higher quality signal to wireless devices. 

As great as wireless technology is, it’s just not as reliable as a wired connection.  Maybe with Kyocera’s SAW filters things will change.
