About Qualcomm's 11ax Solution
Qualcomm's Wi-Fi 6 solution is designed to provide consistent high-speed performance combined with low latency on congested networks. In addition to the 11ax standard, proprietary technology enables increased network capacity, ultra-fast connections, and efficient resource management.
Main technology of 11ax
11ax is a standard that aims to improve performance/usability in a crowded wireless LAN environment compared to previous Wi-Fi standards.
It is a standard that greatly improved the following three technologies.
- Improved multi-user technology
- Improved maximum transmission rate
- Low power consumption
1. Improved multi-user technology
■ 8x8 MU-MIMO: Supports up to 8x8 MU-MIMO in both downlink and uplink
【Expected effect】
・Up to 8 clients can connect simultaneously
*11ac is up to 4x4, downlink only
■ OFDMA: Employs proven OFDMA technology for 4G LTE for efficient access
【Expected effect】
・It is possible to provide services to multiple users with different bandwidths at the same time.
・A maximum of 37 users can be sent in one transmission
■ Uplink resource scheduler: manage users so that they do not conflict with each other
【Expected effect】
・This approach improves resource utilization and increases efficiency
*In the conventional method, there is no management for users to send data on the uplink.
Note: * is 11ac standard specification, OFDMA stands for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access
2. Improved maximum transmission rate
■ With 11ax, a transmission rate of up to 9.6 Gbps has been made possible by adopting the following technologies.
[Employed technology]
・Use of 1024QAM
・Expansion of packet length
・Increase the density of subcarriers
*11ac maximum transmission rate is 6.9Gbps
Note: * indicates 11ac standard specifications
3. Low power consumption
■ Resource Scheduling Capability: Devices negotiate when and how often to wake up to send and receive data.
■ TWT (Target Wake Time): Allows for increased device sleep time, improving battery life
