| contents | It is a fact that the universe lives on a Gravitational Wave Background (GWB), which it may be in the form of extra energy, which is not contained in Einstein's field equations. In \cite{Matos:2021jef}, a new model was developed to explain the current accelerating expansion of the universe where a GWB was incorporated by extending Einstein's equations to $R_{μν}-\frac{1}{2}Rg_{μν}+\frac{2π^2}{λ^2}g_{μν}=κ^2 T_{μν}$, where $λ$ is the Compton wavelength of the graviton. In the present work we show that this extended form agrees very well with the observations of Cosmic chronometers, Baryon Acoustic Oscillations and Pantheon SN type Ia, reproducing the observational data with a $Δχ^2=3.26$ in favor of the present model compared to the $Λ$CDM. The values favored by these observations are $Ω_{\rm m} = 0.31 \pm 0.02$, $H_0=68 \pm 0.02$ Km/s/Mpc, $Ω_{\rm k} = 0.001\pm 0.011$; we also find an excellent consistence of this model with the Cosmic Microwave Background and the Matter Power Spectrum. We conclude that this model is an excellent alternative to explain the accelerating expansion of the universe without incorporating the cosmological constant. |
