Whitepaper
The Future of Wi-Fi in Low-Power IoT Devices
Wi-Fi is the most widely used wireless standard today, but only recently has it emerged as a viable option for IoT applications. That changed when Wi-Fi 4 made the standard more cost and energy efficient. And today, with further improvements in performance and power consumption, Wi-Fi 6 is accelerating adoption even faster.
There are about 800 million Wi-Fi devices deployed every year, and a quarter of those are battery-powered. As more and more devices are introduced that rely on low-power, low-cost, and small size – while also requiring cloud connectivity – Wi-Fi developers need tools that allow them to focus on their products instead of the wireless design.
In this whitepaper, we explore how Wi-Fi is emerging as a viable choice for IoT devices and how developers can bring low-power and high-performance designs to market quickly.
