Woosh Wireless has secured rights for broadcasting spectrum from Sky TV that will enable it to provide internet television.

The deal continues Woosh's acquisitions in the past two years of Wimax spectrum, which enables it to deliver a range of wireless services. Wimax is a broadband wireless standard, capable of delivering high speeds.

Woosh - whose chief executive Bob Smith resigned yesterday - said it had secured rights for more than 2.3 gigahertz of spectrum owned by Sky, which would enable the provision of internet television on its wireless network throughout the country.
