Wi-Fi HaLow for IoT
The “Wi-Fi HaLow for IoT” white paper gives an overview of the features, expected use cases, and markets for Wi-Fi HaLow. Wi-Fi HaLow enables extended ranges, improved penetration capabilities, extended battery life, enhanced device density, heightened peak throughput, minimized end-to-end delay, a higher level of security, ease of installation and management, and elevated data throughput in IoT scenarios.
WBA’s Wi-Fi HaLow for IoT program has moved into a new phase, testing 802.11ah Wi-Fi HaLow solutions in real-world use cases with contributing industry members. These include a range of applications including Smart Home, Smart City, Building Automation, Smart Retail, Industrial IoT, and Agriculture Technology.
The project team will test the use cases and applications to demonstrate the benefits and performance Wi-Fi HaLow has in the real world, including understanding crucial metrics such as coverage areas, data rates, throughput, and signal reliability. A detailed analysis from the trials will inform new deployment guides, helping wider industry successfully roll-out IoT solutions, without having to resort to proprietary or non-IP technologies to gain the automation, insights and business benefits that IoT promises to deliver.
For organizations eager to share relevant use cases and learning, we encourage you to reach out to the WBA Program Management Office (PMO) at pmo@wballiance.com. Be part of shaping the future of Wi-Fi.
