Wi-Fi 6
Wi-Fi 6, also known as 802.11ax, is the sixth generation of Wi-Fi technology that provides faster speeds, increased capacity, and improved performance in dense environments. It introduces features like Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) and Target Wake Time (TWT) to enhance efficiency and reduce latency. This standard is designed to support the growing number of connected devices in homes, offices, and public spaces.
Developers should learn Wi-Fi 6 when building applications that require high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity, such as IoT systems, streaming services, or real-time collaboration tools. It is particularly useful in scenarios with many concurrent devices, like smart homes or enterprise networks, to ensure reliable performance and better power management for battery-operated devices.
