Key Technologies for IEEE 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7)

The IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) will release a new amendment standard IEEE 802.11be - Extremely High Throughput (EHT). The new 802.11be amendment aims to achieve much faster and larger-capacity data transmission compared to the previous 802.11ax. Although 802.11be is still an upcoming standard, the Wi-Fi Alliance® clarified Wi-Fi 7 will be the next major generational Wi-Fi technology evolution based on the developing 802.11be standard. Like the 802.11ax, the 802.11be standard will support the 6 GHz band and is expected to support the latest applications and services such as ultra-high resolution video streaming greater than 4K and AR/VR. 

This white paper will provide the readers with:

•    An overview of IEEE 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) 
•    The standardization timeline
