WHAT IS WIFI?
Wi-Fi: A Wireless Connection

Wi-Fi stands for Wireless Fidelity. It's a technology that allows

electronic devices like computers, smartphones, tablets, and
smart home devices to connect to the internet or communicate
with each other without using physical cables.
How does Wi-Fi work?

 Wireless Router: This device acts as a hub, connecting your internet modem to your wireless
devices.
 Radio Waves: The router broadcasts radio waves that your Wi-Fi enabled devices can pick up.
 Data Transmission: When you use a Wi-Fi device, it sends and receives data through these radio
waves.

Key Components of a Wi-Fi Network

A Wi-Fi network typically consists of the following components:

1. Wireless Router: This device connects your wired internet connection (like a cable or DSL
modem) to a wireless network. It broadcasts a Wi-Fi signal that devices can connect to.
2. Wireless Access Point (WAP): Similar to a router, a WAP is a standalone device that extends a
Wi-Fi network. It's often used in larger areas to improve coverage.
3. Wireless Network Interface Card (WNIC): This is a hardware component built into most
modern devices (laptops, smartphones, tablets) that allows them to connect to a Wi-Fi network.
4. Wireless Client: Any device equipped with a WNIC that connects to a Wi-Fi network.

GENERATIONS OF WIFI:
 Generations of Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi has evolved significantly over the years, with each generation bringing substantial
improvements in speed, range, and capacity. Here's a breakdown of the key generations:

Early Generations (Before Wi-Fi 4)

While not officially named as generations, these early standards laid the groundwork for modern
Wi-Fi:

 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g: These early standards introduced Wi-Fi to the world, offering speeds
ranging from 11 Mbps to 54 Mbps. They operated on the 2.4 GHz frequency band.
 802.11n: Often referred to as Wi-Fi 4, this standard introduced MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple
Output) technology, improving data rates and range. It also supported both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
bands.

Modern Generations

These generations have brought significant advancements and

are widely used today:
 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5): This standard focused on improving
speeds and efficiency in the 5 GHz band. It introduced
wider channels and MU-MIMO (Multi-User MIMO),
allowing multiple devices to connect simultaneously.
 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6): This generation brought substantial
improvements in capacity, speed, and efficiency, especially
in crowded environments. It introduced technologies like
OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple
Access) and target wake time (TWT) to optimize network
performance.
 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7): The latest generation, Wi-Fi 7, aims to
deliver even higher speeds, lower latency, and increased
capacity. It utilizes wider channels, higher order
modulation, and multi-link operation (MLO) to achieve
these advancements

HOW WIFI-6 WORKING

How Wi-Fi 6 Works

Wi-Fi 6, also known as 802.11ax, is a significant advancement over previous Wi-Fi standards. It
employs several key technologies to deliver improved performance and efficiency in crowded
network environments.

Key Technologies in Wi-Fi 6

 Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA): This technology divides the Wi-
Fi channel into smaller subchannels, allowing multiple devices to share the same channel
simultaneously without interfering with each other. It's like dividing a highway into multiple
lanes, allowing more cars to travel efficiently.
  Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO): While previous Wi-Fi standards could only handle one
device at a time, MU-MIMO allows routers to communicate with multiple devices
simultaneously, increasing overall network capacity.
 Target Wake Time (TWT): This feature allows devices to schedule when they want to wake up
and transmit data, reducing power consumption and extending battery life.
 Basic Service Set (BSS) Coloring: This technology helps to reduce interference between
multiple Wi-Fi networks in close proximity, improving network performance.

How It Works in Practice

1. Multiple Devices: Wi-Fi 6 can handle many devices connecting at once, thanks to OFDMA and
MU-MIMO.
2. Efficient Data Transfer: OFDMA divides the channel into smaller parts, allowing data to be
sent to multiple devices efficiently.
3. Reduced Power Consumption: TWT helps devices save battery life by allowing them to sleep
when not actively using the network.
4. Improved Network Capacity: By addressing interference and optimizing data transfer, Wi-Fi 6
can handle more devices and higher data rates.

In essence, Wi-Fi 6 creates a more efficient and reliable wireless network by optimizing
how data is transmitted and managed.
DRAWBACKS OF WIFI-6:

*The first and biggest drawback is the gadgets are expensive like laptops, smartphones
and computers.

*Another drawback is network extend, WIFI-6 is a smaller range compared with

5GHZ.

*Lack of compatibility and host and aspects of consider

CONGLUSION:

Overall my conclusion, WIFI-6 is the most interesting and most efficient network
technology. This is the new and modern. The Humans are already into the internet modern world
this is also make into modern in human life. WIFI-6 has many features, benefits and
disadvantage.

WIFI-6 increasing internet users and including many features like speed, better, fast,
efficient, and secure. This WIFI-6 TECHNOLOGY is awesome and better than other
generations. And this is support all internet devices. It is had some of drawbacks are there, things
host and smaller range network like that.

That’s all!
