It 'a spokesman for the social network to confirm the research, after they came to the surface a number of patents filed by Facebook in recent months and describing a "Next Generation Data Network" based on millimeter-wave transmissions and organized as a mesh type network, or a network where each node acts as a transmitter, receiver, and repeater, so as to allow the survival of the network itself if some node becomes uncomfortable some problem.
"It is a Connectivty Lab work that supports Internet.org mission - to connect the four billion people who lack access to an access to the web," said a Facebook spokesman. Inside the Connectivity Lab there are other research projects and experimentation, among which the best known is probably Project Eagle, the automatic electric aircraft that can transmit connectivity to the ground via the laser technology.
As happens in the case of all patents, there is obviously no certainty that the millimeter-wave mesh network Facebook system is actually performed in the future.
