Rf spectrum for Wi-Fi, let’s do a comparison
In today’s training video we’ll be comparing the spectrum
across the bands 2, 4, 5 gig and 6 gig
We’re not going to go talking about the 900 megahertz
or some of the other Iot bands
We’re just focusing on 2.4, 5 gig and 6
Let’s look at
As we look at this chart, it looks a little overwhelming,
there is lots and lots of bandwidth
It’s big, it’s filled on the screen
So instead of looking at as a whole,
which we could as you look at as a whole,
there’s a lot going on there
Let’s zoom up into the right corner and
look just at the difference in bandwidth
How much bandwidth do we have?
In 2.4 gig, we have only 80 megahertz to play with
80 megahertz, it sounds like a lot until you realize
it’s really only three channels,
we only have three channels of non overlapping frequency
to use in two or four
Nice, great.
And 20 years ago is fantastic
We did everything else
We then moved up to 5 gigahertz with about 500 megahertz
And we’ve used that for the last decade or more
And that’s really where our growth has been going
But with 6 gig in the future,
we’re picking up an extra 1200 megahertz more space,
more than double what we’ve had so far
So yeah, zooming in there, it’s great to see that we’re getting
that much more spectrum
I mean is, Wi-Fi can be more efficient
We can use wider channels and get faster throughputs
all the way around
Now we’re going to zoom in on just the size
We’ve seen this in the other videos, about 2, 4, 5 gig and 6
2, 4 bigger waves, 5 gig smaller, 6 gig, even smaller
We have a little ruler you can compare those to
If we go in the upper left corner and we now see that
there’s just three channels
When we talk specifically about 2.4, we showed all the
13 channels, but really there’s only three that we can use
cleanly without adjacent channel interference
And we really don’t like adjacent channel interference
The problem with 3 is that forces us to be in many situations
in where we have Code Channel interference,
tumor AP on the same channel above a noise floor
If it’s above the noise floor where there’s a preamble detect
If I detect your preamble, I will wait and defer
That means two APs on the same channel above the preamble
is that you have the capacity of one
Because they both wait for each other
The protocol is very polite
If you’re talking, I’m going to wait for you
Thus the 2.4 gig problem is
we don’t have enough frequency to go there
The other issue is because it has a wider, bigger wavelength
That means the received aperture on the
devices that are listening will collect more information,
meaning they can be further away from an AP and still hear it
enough to be in its preamble detect
So the contention domain, the size of how it can be
effective to other devices
It’s pretty big, like measured in hundreds of meters
So that’s kind of hard to design and keep those where they are
Works really good for Iot
Works really good for low data rate devices
Older devices can’t do anything else
Of course, they’re going to be in there
Then we look and zoom in on the 5 gig
Now, in this view, we took out the U-NII-2b
because it’s really not part of what we’re going to do
And there’s no U-NII-4 because it hasn’t been ratified yet
This is our current set
We have about 25 20 megahertz channels, 11 40 megahertz channels,
but only 5 80 megahertz channel
So we don’t get a lot of 80 megahertz going on today
in the 5 gig space unless you’re, you know, home or
our small office is very far away from any neighbors
We stick in the 40s and again the rule use the widest channel
you can until you can’t
How do you know you can’t, you know,
when you get code channel interference
So if you have code channel interference,
go to a smaller channel
And then we can zoom out and see this big 6 gigahertz
6 gigahertz has lots and lots of frequency,
59 20 megahertz channels to play with
This is huge, 29 40s
We can go to 40s and not hit any code channel interference
in most buildings anywhere
In fact was 14 in the U.S., at least
with 14 80 megahertz channels
That’s fantastic, that’s this that’s, you know,
more than we’re getting right now with our 40s
So 80 is going to be the new 40 moving on in the 6 gig
We still don’t have 6 gig shipping that yet
But as you compare these,
6 gig is going to be the future of where we’re going
Like we’ve said in other videos, if you like what you see here
and you want more training videos, go make comments,
go download the graphics, the files that you like
