"We are starting with 2.6 gigahertz because today most vendors support it and the devices are available, especially the USB dongles, but we know that 2.6 gigahertz will not be able to meet the required coverage for outdoor or indoor, and will also be very expensive," he said.

We are capable of making a paint that can absorb over 200 gigahertz"

Wellspring International Inc., a provider of wireless, point-of-use utility submeters for all building types, announced it has released a 2.4 gigahertz ZigBee ready prototype design, consummating a development agreement with Ember Corporation to bring ZigBee technology to Wellspring's Aqura wireless submetering system.

The Pentium 4 chip running at four gigahertz is now expected to ship in the first quarter of next year, said an Intel spokesperson, but declined to provide the reasons for the delay other that the company wanted to meet the "customer volume and quality expectations".

The EZgo PC is based on laptop motherboard technology, but is fitted with a standard 1.7 Celeron to a 3 gigahertz Pentium PC processor and comes with standard USB ports, modem, infrared and FireWire ports and an Ethernet network card.

However, in sharp contrast to a mechanical gyroscope, the angular momentum of the electron spin precesses at megahertz to gigahertz frequencies.

The detector is also combined with underground radar, which radiates two gigahertz of electromagnetic waves and detects the reflection of landmines buried up to 80cm in the ground.

BJ's began installing Symbol's Spectrum24 platform, based on 2.4 gigahertz, two years ago, and currently approximately 50 stores use this technology.

The Athlon was the first chip to hit speed levels of 1 gigahertz and offered more performance than Pentium 3 chips operating at the same speed.

Intel's lightening fast processor has just been launched and has a new two gigahertz chip, which is not only powerful and versatile, but is considered the world's highest performance desktop microprocessor.

Significant progress has been made in developing and deploying high-power gyrotrons in the 1 megawatt level at 110 GigaHertz frequency, as well as development of 170 GigaHertz prototype units, both for plasma heating and driving plasma currents, Baker said.

Bluetooth achieves its wireless communication over the 2.4 gigahertz (GHz) radio band, or 2.4 billion cycles per second.

The gigahertz chip era has arrived, faster than Gordon Moore could have predicted, reports the New York Times.

(MHz means megahertz, or 1 million hertz, and GHz means gigahertz, or 1 billion hertz.) The years along the bottom show when the wireless gadget was invented.

So much of his expectation is based on gigahertz satellite transmission bands--but as of 1991 there apparently are only eight vacant parking orbits lift for communication satellites.
