Abstract

IEEE 802.11ad will take advantage of the luge swath of available spectrum in the 60 GHz band to develop a protocol to enable throughput intensive applications such as wireless display and high speed sync-and-go file transfer. Functional requirements, evaluation methodology, and channel models are currently being developed by the task group in preparation for a call for proposals. Likely enhancements to 802.11 beyond a new 60 GHz PHY include Personal Basic Service Set, MAC modifications for directional antennas, fast session transfer between PHYs, beamforming, and spatial reuse. Therefore in this paper we give an overview of IEEE 802.11ad, which is poised to define the next generation multi-Gbps Wi-Fi.
