An essential guide for networking professionals responsible for implementing Wi-Fi 7

Join wireless networking experts Jerome Henry, Brian Hart, Binita Gupta, and Malcolm Smith on this deep dive into Wi-Fi 7 and 802.11be. The authors explore how to design and optimize your network to fully leverage Wi-Fi 7's new capabilities.

You will learn in detail the inner workings of Wi-Fi 7 improvements like rTWT, puncturing, triggered uplink access, and SCS QC. You will explore the new possibilities of multi-link operations and learn why clients will come in five possible MLO modes that dramatically change the expectations you can have for their performances. Youll gain practical, real-world insights into protocol implementation and its effects on cell design, roaming efficiency, and overall network performance.

This book is an invaluable resource for anyone who designs, manages, and optimizes wireless networks or works with 802.11, from network architects and wireless network administrators to network engineers and anyone whose job includes the need to face the Wi-Fi 7 wave or understand 802.11be and its challenges in depth.

Whether you are new to IEEE 802.11 standards or looking to deepen your understanding of the latest wireless networking advancements, this book gives you the knowledge and expertise to stay ahead in the evolving Wi-Fi technology landscape.

Includes a foreword by Matt MacPherson (CTO of Wireless, Cisco Systems)

In this book, you will:

  • Understand the foundational concepts of Wi-Fi and the 802.11be protocol
  • Explore the challenges and balance of backward compatibility in Wi-Fi 7 development
  • Learn about the enhancements introduced in Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E and their impact on 802.11be
  • Explore the enhancements in transmission and reception techniques, channel structure and multi-user access management
  • Learn about Multi-Link Operation (MLO) and its five different modes
  • Understand Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms and priority scheduling
  • Examine site survey and network planning considerations specific to Wi-Fi 7 deployments
