What a horrible corruption of a good paper that second link is.. The experience showed that quantum states can be encoded and transmitted via light over long distances (across a river). The system ran at 45bits/second and only worked at night. Basically, they are experiencing with using quantum states to produce completely secure optical links, no mumbo jumbo about alternate dimensions.
Full text of the paper is available in last weeks 'Science'. Peter J. Kranz DarkerSun Wireless -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Marandino Sent: Friday, August 15, 2003 12:00 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [BAWUG] Future of wireless - The US Patent and Trademark Organization has approved a patent (6,025,810) for a device which claims to be able to transmit and receive electromagnetic waves at a speed faster than light. According to the patent disclosure, the invention can transmit and receive energy over a greater distance and at greater speeds than conventional antennae. The invention claims to use a dimension beyond the time-space continuum to accomplish this. From the patent disclosure: "The present invention takes a transmission of energy, and instead of sending it through normal time and space, it pokes a small hole into another dimension, thus, sending the energy through a place which allows transmission of energy to exceed the speed of light." To investigate more, you can access the patent at the USPTO's home page at http://www.uspto.gov/ (A search engine is available for the patent number.) If this invention does turn out to be true, a revolution could occur in the television industry. Re-runs could actually arrive before the original broadcast. (Just a little Einsteinian humor there.) - http://www.zpenergy.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=228 lets hope this sci-fi goodness comes to fruition in our lifetimes. google on 'quantum teleportation' and related subjects for some wild yet provable technology. http://www.aip.org/physnews/graphics/html/teleport.htm -- Dave Marandino [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- general wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless -- general wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
