Motorola Claims White Spaces Testing Successful

Motorola's combination of geolocation and sensing technologies performed well in FCC testing, Motorola officials say. Devices by Philips, Adaptrum and InfoComm are also being tested as Google, Microsoft, Motorola and other IT companies hope to exploit the digital television transition by delivering wireless broadband in the empty spectrum between digital television channels.

"It worked as well as we said it would," said Steve Sharkey, Motorola's senior director of regulatory and spectrum policy. "It went really well."
