[SEMINAR] February 9, 2021 – Evgeny Khorov – Future Wi-Fi at a Glance
We are happy to invite you to the next talk of Moscow Telecommunication Seminar which will be held at 6.30 PM (MSK, UTC+03:00), on Tuesday, February 9, 2021, in Zoom.
Title: Future Wi-Fi at a Glance
Abstract: Wi-Fi networks have become a commodity such as running water, electricity, and cars. Today Wi-Fi accounts for half of all user traffic. Although this happens almost imperceptibly for most users, without rebranding, as in cellular systems, the Wi-Fi technology is rapidly evolving to satisfy new and ever-increasing requirements. The talk will discuss new amendments to the Wi-Fi standard that have recently been completed or are still under development, as well as new challenges for Wi-Fi developers.
