Wi-Fi 6 is the latest version of the technology that facilitates higher speeds than that 
of its immediate predecessor, Wi-Fi 5, which is also called as 802.11ac. This 
enhanced speed is just one feature of the Wi-Fi 6. Along with that, it also assures 
you of hassle-free performance at locations where there is a lot of demand on the 
available network.
In fact, there are several areas where the updated Wi-Fi simply outperforms the Wi-
Fi 5. Now, it won’t be inappropriate to delve on the corresponding aspects 
emphasizing how the Wi-Fi 6 is way ahead!
In situations where several devices depend on the same Wi-Fi connection, at a given 
point of time, the Wi-Fi 6 is second to none! The routers of this Wi-Fi have been 
made in such a way that speeds of all the connected devices remain unaffected.
The noteworthy improvement of Wi-Fi is chiefly attributable to these sophisticated 
technologies: multi-user, multiple inputs, multiple-output (MU-MIMO) and 
orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA). MU-MIMO empowers 
the router to carry out communications with many devices, simultaneously. 
Likewise, several devices receive data from single transmission, through the 
OFDMA technology.
The Wi-Fi makes use of TWT (target wake time), as well and, as a result of that; 
devices are able to ascertain as to when they’ll resume receiving and sending data. 
This particular characteristic makes a pivotal role in ensuring that the devices’ 
battery life gets markedly extended.
In the contemporary era and while speaking of the Internet, how can we not 
mention the crucial element of cyber security? The Wi-Fi 6 has been fortified with 
added security where cracking passwords become a herculean task for hackers!
Let us have a brief glance at some of the technical facets of Wi-Fi 6, due to which it 
is recognized as an enhancement over the previous edition.
You find an increase in bandwidth for the streaming of virtual reality.
There is a higher spectrum.
The spectrum is divided into many channels
It includes Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (1024-QAM) technology where 
you have packets consisting of a high volume of data
Wi-Fi 6 supports dynamic fragmentation making sure that optimum use is made 
of the network
It encompasses beamforming, which sends signals only to specific users and not 
in all directions
This Wi-Fi has two network allocations vectors (NAVs) as a preventive measure 
against possible clashes between networks.
Here, it will be very relevant if users are informed on certain important points 
regarding the Wi-Fi 6.
It is only since the recent past that the devices compatible with Wi-Fi 6 are being 
sold in the market.
As of now, the number of these devices is on the lower side and, the prices are 
also rather exorbitant.
No doubt, even now the routers of Wi-Fi 6 can be purchased for devices that you 
presently use. But, it needs to be understood that the full gains of the technology 
can be witnessed, only when you go for devices that are actually manufactured to 
support this Wi-Fi.
The year 2020 shall be the one where there is going to be tremendous growth in 
the design and sale of Wi-Fi 6 smart-phones, tablets and laptops, etc. There’ll be 
an extensive range of choices for consumers!
