A new WiFi technology is being developed, not to expand the outreach and strength because there is WiMax technology, but that the use of batteries in mobile devices become more efficient. With this new WiFi technology cell phone battery could last 2 times longer.
How WiFi technology works so they can save battery usage? A computer engineering graduate student from Duke University did a simple way. He made that WiFi devices can rest (sleep) until the available bandwidth is sufficient, in other words, if the connection bandwidth is not enough then the device will not seek an endless connectivity can save battery usage.
Technology called SleepWell can also make the device to sleep while waiting for its turn to download something, because most devices should remain on its WiFi while waiting to download that can deplete the battery.
Not yet known when SleepWell will be released tothe public, but when released will likely need more time to be applied globally.
