But, 60 GHz frequency is very much suitable for short-range wireless local area networks (WLANs). A new short-range WLAN (known as WiGig) has recently evolved using IEEE 802.11ad protocol standards which uses centre frequency around 60 GHz [6]. It can link devices with up to 7 Gbps speed over a very short distance of around 10 m. That means, it is almost 10 times faster than the currently used WLANs using IEEE 802.11n protocol standards. This IEEE 802.11ad WLAN is ideal for wireless delivery of high definition (HD) video at home. Availability of wide transmission bandwidth of about 7 GHz, the 57–64 GHz unlicensed mm-wave band is also becoming popular for short-range radio broadcasting [7]. The details of the requirements and specifications associated with IEEE 802.11ad protocol standards are available from ref. [8]. Utility of this band also explored ultra-high speed satellite-to-satellite communication links (i.e. cross-links) in the high earth orbiting geosynchronous satellites having around 43,000 Km orbits; 60 GHz frequency is especially suitable for high earth-orbiting satellite long-haul cross-links due to the absence of oxygen molecules at those high altitudes [9].
