WiFi 8 Will Be Supposedly Identical To WiFi 7 But There Will Be Some Great Enhancements For Better Efficiency

WiFi 8 isn’t going to increase the bandwidth and will be identical to WiFi 7 in many aspects but it will have several optimizations.

WiFi 8 will bring improved Device-Access Point Coordination and several new enhancements to deliver seamless connectivity

Wireless internet connectivity has rapidly evolved in the past few years. While a lot of users have just begun adopting the WiFi 6 standard, WiFi 7 was already dropped in January this year, eventually making it to Intel Z890 motherboards as well as AMD X870/E motherboards.

The discussions about WiFi 8 have already started and if you are expecting WiFi 8 to double the data bandwidth of WiFi 7, it will focus on enhancing the efficiency of the existing transfer rates to ensure better performance outside of the box. PC World reports that, as per MediaTek, there can be several ways to enhance WiFi 8 iteration, which may be introduced in the new standard if approved.

These enhancements revolve around optimizing the coordination between the access points and the connected devices. Features such as Coordinated Spatial Reuse(Co-SR) and Coordinated Beamforming(Co-BF) are some of the best optimization techniques that seek to strengthen the signal connection between access points and devices.

Coordinated Spatial Reuse can enhance the communication between the access points to optimize power output and will supposedly improve throughput by 15-25%. It will succeed the Spatial Reuse introduced in Wi-Fi 6 and will allow the access points to coordinate their power output to enhance…
