Siemens Communications claimed a historic wireless speed record this week, touting that its Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology allowed it to reach a wireless data transfer rate of 1 gigabit per second, which is 20 times the speed of today’s wireless local area network (WLAN). While the speed mark was a significant demonstration of future wireless technology, it involved an experimental situation that was far from a viable market reality, according to Yankee Group senior analyst Shelley Chhabra.
