Wireless technology for broadband Internet

Wireless technology for broadband Internet

Project Contents

Overview

To assist policy makers in understanding the evolution of rapidly growing wireless networks, Christian Sandvig, one of our early Visiting Fellows, carried out a pilot study in July 2004 that mapped the use of Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) for broadband Internet access in Oxfordshire. This contributed to a cross-national study involving the Oxford Internet Institute and the University of Illinois.
