- Edholm's law
Edholm's law, named for
Phil Edholm , says thewireless , nomadic and wired network capabilities will converge. Soon, even slower communications channels like cellphones and radio modems will eclipse the capacity of earlyEthernet , thanks to upcoming standards known asUMTS andMIMO , which will boost bandwidth by maximizing antenna usage.Extrapolating forward indicates a convergence between the rates of nomadic and wireless technologies around 2030.
