Webinars

     Wireless LAN technology continues to advance, with Wi-Fi 8 (IEEE 802.11bn) introducing a fundamental shift from maximizing peak data rates to delivering Ultra High Reliability (UHR). Rather than focusing solely on speed, Wi-Fi 8 aims to improve real-world network performance through higher actual throughput, lower latency, and reduced packet loss in increasingly demanding wireless environments. 

      In this webinar, we'll review the latest Wi-Fi 8 standardization progress and market trends, then explore key new technologies expected to shape next-generation WLAN devices, including Enhanced Long Range (ELR), Distributed-tone Resource Units (DRU), Unequal Modulation (UEQM), additional Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) options, and Multi-AP Coordination techniques.

     You’ll learn how these innovations are designed to improve coverage, reliability, throughput, and latency, while also creating new RF test and validation challenges. We'll examine how the growing number of Wi-Fi 8 feature combinations increases test complexity and discuss practical approaches for efficiently evaluating device performance during development and certification. Finally, we'll highlight test solution capabilities that can help streamline Wi-Fi 8 design verification and accelerate time to market.
