Post from Wi-Fi Alliance (@WiFiAlliance)

Wi-Fi Alliance (@WiFiAlliance) posted at 9:48 AM on Tue, Sep 12, 2023: Wi-Fi Alliance hosted the first public demonstration of  #WiFi 7 in the Middle East. The demonstration was organized with the Arab Spectrum Management Group meeting in preparation for the World Radiocommunication Conference #WRC23.

One of the unique key features of 802.11be is the multi-link operation (MLO), which allows for simultaneous connections to different bands. On top of higher throughput due to link aggregation, MLO improves reliability, enhances band steering and load balancing, and reduces latency. Latency-sensitive applications and applications that require more deterministic connectivity are also supported thanks to the stream classification service (SCS) feature. The amendment also addresses spectrum efficiency and interference mitigation thanks to features such as multi-resource units (M-RUs) and preamble puncture.

Wi-Fi 7 is already gaining momentum, and many manufacturers — including original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) — have announced the availability of chipsets and solutions. The Wireless Broadband Alliance (WBA) has just released a report that explores how Wi-Fi 7 will transform the way people worldwide live, work, learn and play. The report is available as a free download from the WBA.

Preparing for the Next Generation of Wi-Fi While WFA focuses on developing Wi-Fi 7 certification to ensure product interoperability, IEEE 802.11 is initiating the development of the next IEEE 802.11 amendment, known as 802.11bn (likely to be marketed as Wi-Fi 8). It typically takes several years to complete 802.11 amendments, and the finalization of 802.11bn isn’t expected before 2027 or 2028.

IEEE 802.11bn will focus on reliability, including increasing throughput at range, reducing tail latency and supporting seamless/near-seamless roaming/mobility. It will also provide schemes to reduce access point (AP) power consumption as regulators around the globe address customer premises equipment (CPE) power consumption.

How is CableLabs working to support these efforts? As part of our ongoing mission to represent the interests of our members, we take part in many WFA and IEEE 802.11 working groups to shape the future of Wi-Fi.

" It's also a common misconception that 5G is a singular piece of technology or standard that was implemented, and now we are just waiting to see the results, which will mainly be faster internet on our phones. In fact, 5G is an evolving standard. Most of the infrastructure in place today relies on a slower form of 5G which effectively "piggy-backs" on the existing 4G LTE infrastructure. True, “stand-alone” 5G is gradually being rolled out, which will enable it to reach its full potential in the coming years. "

" …

The addressable market for WLAN is being enlarged alongside the introduction of new technologies. "For example, Wi-Fi 7 will help deliver the deterministic low latency required for mission-critical industrial automation applications and emerging real-time technologies such as AR/VR. Again, WLAN’s convergence with 5G in private networks will allow the combined technologies to be deployed in environments in which wireless was previously unable to service, raising the addressable market for both technologies,” says Andrew Spivey, Senior Analyst at ABI Research. “To exploit these additional opportunities, vendors need to foster partnerships and build competencies for new applications and demonstrate to consumers that their WLAN solutions can satisfy the requirements of these new use cases.”

…

While larger vendors, with their market-dominant position and extensive pool of resources, may appear best placed to exploit the opportunities these new services offer, they also move slower and struggle to integrate new technologies seamlessly into legacy platforms. “On the other hand, smaller vendors are often nimbler and better equipped to incorporate new features consistently across their entire portfolio. They also have the advantage of greater focus and network management simplicity. For this reason, the emergence of new services provides smaller vendors a golden opportunity to eat into the market shares of their larger peers,” Spivey concludes.
