In the past, telecommunications companies have built the infrastructure to support the Internet, but now edge providers (the businesses that provide online content and services) are taking a direct approach. Microsoft and Facebook just announced that they are partnering to build a giant cable that will be capable of moving 160 terabits per second.

German researchers have set a new world record for wireless data transmission. They achieved six gigabits per second, sending the entire contents of a DVD in less than ten seconds using radio waves.

Engineers at Drexel University developed an app that uses augmented reality to demonstrate antenna performance. The BeamViewer app visualizes electromagnetic signals and demonstrates the difference between a standard antenna and a smart reconfigurable antenna, which adjusts its signals to find the best path.
