It’s only been a little over a year since the W-Fi Alliance released the Wi-Fi Certified 6 certification program, followed by Wi-Fi 6E not too long after, but excitement around Wi-Fi 7 is already mounting. At the Wireless Broadband Alliance’s Wireless Global Conference, Intel’s CTO of Wireless Communications Carlos Cordeiro put some of this excitement into perspective by previewing some of the most highly anticipated features of Wi-Fi 7.
First, he explained that as data continues to be moved closer and closer to users, from the cloud to the network core to the edge, it going to lead higher wireless communications demands, specifically when it comes to the emerging need of very low latency due to the advent of AI, mobile edge compute and other applications that will require it.
