FCC Takes A Look At Using Television For Wireless Networks
Filed in archive Announcements by Jason Giacchino on July 14, 2008

The Federal Communications Commission announced the clearance of field-testing prototype TV white-spaces devices, proof that the FCC is looking into opening up more airwaves to Wi-Fi and other unlicensed wireless devices (so long as interference to digital broadcast signals isn't an issue).
Basically in English this means the FCC will sample various signals across TV white spaces to see if devices and services can be used on the empty spectrum between analog TV channels without causing interference. The FCC has already conducted several rounds of testing, most successfully but with a few failures.
If tests continue to be successful the FCC could authorize use of these white spaces for consumer devices in the future; which would essentially revolutionize the wireless industry.
