Nextgen wireless devices to operate vacant television spectrum.
WASHINGTON/SAN FRANCISCO - Google Inc Monday unveiled plans for a new generation of wireless devices to operate on soon-to-be-vacant television airwaves, and sought to alleviate fears that this might interfere with TV broadcasts or wireless microphones.

In comments filed with the Federal Communications Commission, the Internet leader outlined plans for low-power devices that use local wireless airwaves to access the "white space" between television channels. A Google (NSDQ: GOOG) executive called the plan "Wi-Fi 2.0 or Wi-Fi on steroids."
