Future of Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi 7 Masterclass
802.11be/EHT/Wi-Fi 7 (duration – 3 hours)
Many new Wi-Fi standards are in the pipeline and are likely to influence the growth of Wi-Fi. The next generation of Wi-Fi standards will cater to even greater throughputs and satisfy new age requirements like latency and reliability for applications like virtual reality. We take a look at the most important upgrade to 802.11ax/Wi-Fi 6 which is intended to address the challenges of the next decade.
Topics to be covered are
- Main objective of Wi-Fi 7
- High-rate requirements to compete with 5G and beyond
- Timelines envisage
- Key technologies being considered in Wi-Fi 7;
- Large bandwidth channels
- 240 MHz and 320 MHz ; link to 6 GHz spectrum
- Non-contiguous unequal bandwidth aggregation possibilities
- Unequal RU allocation possibilities
- EHT Preamble ; backward and forward compatibility
- Legacy preamble plus U-SIG
- PPDU format for SU and MU transmissions
- Role of EHT-SIG
- Updates to modulation, coding, MIMO, MU-MIMO, beamforming
- Multi-link operation
- Discovery and setup
- Operation; Link mapping, Block ACK, security, power save
- Channel access for data transmission
- Multi-AP Operation
- Coordination amongst APs; roles, time/frequency domain coordination
- Large bandwidth channels
