Dublin, Jan. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Extended Wi-Fi Family - From RF to Optical Technologies and Economics" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report addresses recent or planned enhancements to one of the most established and powerful wireless technology - Wi-Fi. Originated in the 20s century, this WLAN family belongs to a very small group of communications technologies that do not getting obsolete over time. The family continues to grow adding new members that bring WLAN to the forefront of today innovations in communications with multiple applications and pushing up the limits in performance. Wi-Fi will support and strengthen 5G networks making them more flexible and efficient.

The report goal is to analyze recently introduced or still in the development advanced Wi-Fi technologies, their applications and marketplace. It also surveys related industries.

In particular, it addresses such developments as:

• 60 GHz Wi-Fi - This is the Wi-Fi industry response on the users' new requirements to support gigabits per second transmission rates over shorter ranges for such applications as a home/office distribution of HDVD and similar bandwidth-hunger applications. The report addresses specifics of 60 GHz channels and details technology. It also introduces the NG 60 GHz standard.
• White Spaces Wi-Fi (White Wi-Fi - This technology allows utilizing the property of sub-gigahertz transmission together with Wi-Fi advances. It utilizes unused windows of the TV spectrum and will work with Cognitive Radios.
• Sub - 6 GHz Wi-Fi - (Wi-Fi 5). This development allows gigabits per second speed and enhancing IEEE 802.11n technology in the wide spectrum of characteristics.
• Sub - 1 GHz Wi-Fi (excluding White Spaces) -
• (Wi-Fi 6), which stretches Wi-Fi characteristics beyond imaginable just a few years ago.
• Wi-Fi 6E - in the 6 GHz band.
• WAVE 802.11p - Dedicated Short Reach Communications 5.9 GHz- contribution of Wi-Fi in the development of the connected car.
• IEEE - Evolution of
• IEEE - Wi-Fi Sensing.
• IEEE - Optical Wi-Fi

The report details technical and marketing specifics of these types of WLAN technologies as well as surveys their industries and shows that Wi-Fi 6 is ready to meet a set of 5G requirements; with incoming Wi-Fi 7/8 bringing even wider spectrum of advanced characteristics.
