- Nokia outlines its vision for Wi-Fi 9 – designed to support real-time, immersive and AI-driven digital experiences – as industry discussions at the IEEE 802.11 meeting begin on what comes next for wireless connectivity.
- By setting out early performance goals for the next phase of Wi-Fi evolution, we are shaping industry discussions on how wireless networks must evolve to support increasingly demanding applications.
- Looking ahead, Wi-Fi 9 is expected to evolve alongside future 6G networks as part of a broader, complementary wireless ecosystem, with each technology optimised for different environments and use cases.
For decades, Wi-Fi innovation has largely focused on increasing peak speeds and efficiency, supporting the growing number of connected devices in our homes, workplaces and public spaces.
But the role of Wi-Fi is changing.
As digital experiences become more immersive, intelligent and interactive, wireless networks must evolve beyond simply being ‘fast enough’. The next generation of Wi-Fi needs to support applications where responsiveness, reliability and predictability are just as critical as speed. We believe the next step in Wi-Fi evolution is clear.
