Scientists have created a new wireless technology that could one day rival the reigning wireless communication technology, Bluetooth. The new technology requires so little power it could make devices last five times longer on a single charge.
Currently, the main wireless technologies — including Wi-Fi, 5G and Bluetooth — embedded in devices such as smartphones and wearables, as well as smart home devices, rely on classical radio configurations. These transmit data through electromagnetic waves generated by electromagnetic field modulation.
