Wi-Fi 8 builds upon the foundation of WiFi 7, aiming to further enhance performance and efficiency. While it doesn’t introduce a significant increase in bandwidth or a drastic change in frequency bands, it incorporates several key technologies to optimize network performance:
- Coordinated Beamforming: This technique enables more precise signal direction in mesh networks, leading to a 20-50% improvement in throughput.
- Dynamic Sub-Channel Operation (DSO): By dynamically allocating bandwidth based on device capabilities, DSO can boost throughput by up to 80%.
- Refined Modulation: This technology allows for smoother transitions in signal strength, resulting in a 5-30% improvement in transmission efficiency.
In essence, Wi-Fi 8 is designed to fine-tune the performance of Wi-Fi 7, offering a more efficient and reliable wireless experience.
