According to Wi-Fi Alliance’s VP of Marketing Kevin Robinson, the Alliance is already working on the definition of Wi-Fi 7 (or 802.11be). While the majority of its features are not yet finalized, there are a few direct enhancements over Wi-Fi 6 that can be expected when you upgrade to the seventh generation of wireless technology, including support of 320 megahertz channels, which is double the 160 megahertz of 802.11ax, the use of higher modulation orders, optionally supporting 4096-QAM — up from 1024-QAM in 802.11ax; and the allocation of multiple resource units, such as groups of OFMDA tones.
