Huawei and IEEE Introduce Wi-Fi 7 Advanced Technology White Paper in Europe
At the recent Huawei Network Summit 2025 held in Munich, an exciting development has emerged in the realm of wireless technology. Huawei, along with IEEE and various industry leaders, launched the
Wi-Fi 7 Advanced Technology White Paper. This document is a cornerstone for shaping the future of wireless connectivity across Europe and beyond.
Revolutionary Features of Wi-Fi 7 Advanced
The white paper emphasizes a multitude of innovations that Wi-Fi 7 Advanced brings to the table. Notably, the introduction of
80 MHz continuous multi-AP networking stands out. This enhancement allows for a more robust network capable of supporting numerous devices at higher speeds without significant latency. Moreover, the integration of
Wi-Fi communication and sensing facilitates smarter connectivity across devices and applications.
Dr. Edward Au, the Technical Editor for IEEE 802.11be (the Wi-Fi 7 standard), highlighted the transformative potential of Wi-Fi 7 Advanced for campus networks. "With Wi-Fi 7 Advanced enabling enhanced communication, sensing, and Internet of Things (IoT) capabilities, campuses can expect boosted productivity, improved security measures, and smarter environments," he stated. This reflects a shift towards making entire campus ecosystems more intelligent and interconnected.
Enhanced Connectivity Experience
One of the key features of Wi-Fi 7 Advanced is superfast connectivity through
intelligent Coordinated Scheduling and Spatial Reuse (iCSSR) technology. This innovation enables a significant increase in data throughput, allowing for large-scale operations with 80 MHz networking while achieving double the data rates for single users. This is especially crucial for enterprises that rely on high-speed internet for processes such as augmented reality (AR)-assisted workflows. With
VIP FastPass technology, latency is minimized, ensuring that priority users receive the required bandwidth seamlessly.
Creating Intelligent Spaces
The integration of Wi-Fi with sensing technology is another groundbreaking aspect of this advancement. Wi-Fi sensing capabilities allow for enhanced human presence detection, facilitating energy-efficient building management systems. Moreover, the mmWave technology continually monitors vital signs, contributing to health and safety. The
SD-IoT (Sensor Data IoT) framework reduces deployment costs and time, thereby speeding up the transition towards intelligent environments.
Comprehensive Security Solutions
In an age where data protection is paramount, full-scope security measures offered by Wi-Fi 7 Advanced are a critical feature.
Wi-Fi Shield utilizes AI-driven signal scrambling to guard against data breaches. Additionally, the
Wi-Fi Channel State Information (CSI) provides real-time detection of intrusions, ensuring a zero-trust security architecture. This encompasses monitoring for hidden cameras and other illicit access points, reinforcing privacy and confidentiality for users.
Shawn Zhao, President of Huawei’s Campus Network Domain, noted, "With the power of Wi-Fi 7 Advanced, our
Xinghe AI Campus enhances communication efficiency and safety at unprecedented speeds of 10 Gbps. This integrated approach drives industry-wide intelligent upgrades," illustrating Huawei's commitment to pioneering advancements in network technologies.
Looking forward, Huawei aims to maintain its momentum in innovating campus network technologies while fostering collaboration with European partners. The ultimate goal is to accelerate digital transformation across enterprises, ensuring that businesses are equipped with the most cutting-edge and secure wireless technologies available.
