FCC on Ultra-Wideband, DSL Services
ibirman writes: "According to Yahoo, the FCC has approved limited use of Ultrawideband (UWB) technology above 3.1 gigahertz. The article states that Sprint PCS among others has been campaigning to keep the minimum above 6 gigahertz claiming "interference". From what I have read, interference is not an issue, so I wonder what their real agenda is? Funny that the article does not mention that UWB could revolutinize high speed wireless networking." There's a Newsbytes story that decribes an upcoming ruling on DSL providers, which would exempt DSL carriers from the open-access requirements in place for most telephone services. There are a few links to statements on the front page of fcc.gov, but I don't see the actual orders for either of these yet.
No, dipshit. It's barrage jamming, and you can't filter it out. You can filter out the noise that's outside of the GPS bands. But *THE GPS RECIEVERS ALREADY DO THAT*. They have to because the GPS signals are very close to the noise floor.
