High-Performance Test for 802.11 ax Devices
白皮书
Wireless access to data has become an everyday necessity for both consumers and enterprises. In the last 30 years alone, unfettered access to information has transformed entire industries, fueling growth, productivity and profits. WiFi technology, governed by the IEEE 802.11 standards body, has played a key role in this transformation, providing users with pervasive, low-cost access to high data rate wireless connectivity. The newest 802.11 standard, 802.11ax, is taking things one step further by promising to deliver that connectivity faster, over the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz band by utilizing OFDM, up to 1024 QAM, and multi-user MIMO.
While still in the early stages of development, the 802.11ax standard holds great promise, especially for dense deployments in both indoor and outdoor environments. Like any emerging standard; however, the new technologies it adopts present unique challenges when it comes to testing.
