BTs MESH Broadband Wireless Trial
Posted: 11th Jul, 2003 By: MarkJ
We had though that BTs ambitions for MESH broadband wireless technology were behind it, yet ADSLGuide reports that the operator is now preparing trials for Rhymney in Wales, and Ballingry in Scotland:
The trials are due to last from September to December 2003, and each location will have thirty places. The BT site for the trial is BTMeshTrial.com and this holds all the details on trial.
Mesh wireless systems rely on a grid of local wireless nodes to relay the traffic around an area, which means that each node does not require line of sight to a base station, just a clear signal to another node. Previous Mesh trials have looked at using the system for providing Video On Demand TV services, this trial is giving users 0.5Mbps Internet access, and therefore is a much more realistic test of using Mesh technology to give a basic Internet service.
