Samsung is trying to show that they are the first one to do this by releasing this news.

This has been done by Japan 4 years ago specifically Panasonic and SONY using the 6 to 12 GHz band frequency. These Japanese companies experimented to connect HD/4K TV within a house using wireless technology including wireless speakers. Panasonic tried the 6-GHz band.

This is not magic or magnificent invention by Samsung..

3G/3.5G Technology at 5MHz-wide spectrum is 42Mbps Technology 4G at 10 to 20MHz-wide spectrum is 140mbps speed. This is using 4 MIMO (Multiple-In Multiple-Out) antennas.

Get a 100-Mhz-Wide spectrum with Orthogonal Frequency Division technology using MIMO with more than 4 antennas can easily get 1,000Mbps (1Gbps) speed. Theoretically Possible. But the current technology may not be able produce an oscillator on a handphone os terminals that is stable enough to oscillate more than 10GHz (10 Giga Cycle per second). 6GHz to 9 GHz are already assigned and designated by many government as UWB or Ultra Wide Band.
