EdgeBeam Wireless, a new joint venture formed by four major broadcasting groups (E.W. Scripps, Gray Media, Nexstar Media Group, and Sinclair), aims to provide nationwide wireless data services using ATSC 3.0 technology.

The company targets three main markets with significant revenue potential: automotive connectivity ($3.7B/year), content delivery networks ($3.65B/year), and enhanced GPS ($220M/year). EdgeBeam will deliver data to any civilian or military device with an ATSC 3.0 receiver, including vehicles, drones, marine vessels, and mobile devices.
