Background

IEEE 802.11 approved in March 2019 the creation of a task group to work on a major amendment, IEEE 802.11be, for next generation wireless LAN.

The amendment defined Extreme High Throughput (EHT) physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers capable of supporting a maximum throughput of at least 30 Gbps.

The amendment also reduced worst case latency and jitter to improve support for time sensitive applications such virtual reality, augmented reality, gaming, etc.

The task group completed its work with the delivery and publication of P802.11be D7.0 which received final approval from the IEEE SA Standards Board in September 2024.

Such a request was approved by the EC. The TGbe editor delivered D7.0 and the group approved a 10-day second recirculation SA ballot on P802.11be D7.0.
