[Shenzhen, China, May 29, 2014]: Huawei, a leading global information and
communications technology (ICT) solutions provider, today announced that it
has successfully achieved the industry’s first 10Gbps Wi-Fi service in
laboratory trials at Huawei’s campus in Shenzhen. This important milestone,
which delivered data over Wi-Fi 10 times faster than the fastest existing
Wi-Fi capability commercially available today, will enable a new era of big
data applications by using ultra-fast Wi-Fi technology based on advanced
next generation architecture to boost data rates to 10Gbps.

The 10Gbps Wi-Fi prototype achieved a record transmission data rate of
10.53Gbps on 5GHz frequency bands. The success of this prototype
development, and the ten folds increase in spectrum efficiency that made it
possible, paves the way for the validation of technologies needed to
support the creation of next generation Wi-Fi. Huawei believes that
ultrafast Wi-Fi could become commercially available from 2018 pending the
agreement of global standards requirements and sufficient chipset
availability.

As the demand for ultra-fast connectivity for smartphone applications
continues to drive the need for higher data transmission rates, the next
generation of WiFi access will need to deliver a better user experience,
especially in densely populated environments requiring high density
deployment such as enterprise offices, airports, stadiums, shopping malls
and coffee shops.

To address this growing need, Huawei launched next generation Wi-Fi
technology research in 2010 to focus on innovation surrounding new WiFi
architectures that would break the logjam of classical WiFi wideband radio
and baseband processing to increase user data rates. By utilizing
innovative technologies such as MIMO-OFDA, intelligence spectrum
allocation, interference coordination and hybrid access, the next
generation of Wi-Fi networks will provide dense networking for
ultra-hot-zone services with a tenfold increase in spectrum efficiency.

Huawei continues to actively promote and invest in the research and
development of advanced technologies for WiFi and is recognized as a
leading contributor to the development of next generation WiFi standards.
At the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 WLAN
standard plenary meeting held from May 12-15, 2014 in Hawaii, Dr. Osama
Aboul Magd from Huawei was elected as the 802.11ax WLAN standard task group
chair to focus on the development of the next generation 10Gbps WiFi
standard planned for commercial launch in 2018.
