Speech Title: Future Indoor Wireless Network: Wi-Fi 7 and its evolution

Abstract: Wi-Fi, a family of IEEE 802.11 standards, becomes the most popular wireless technology used for data transmission in home as well as in enterprise. The Wi-Fi community is currently developing IEEE 802.11be (Extremely High Throughput, EHT) and planning the next generation Wi-Fi (UHR), which will bring high-throughput, low-latency, and high-reliability requirements. In this talk,we analyze the key features proposed for the new technology, such as multi-link operation, channel sounding and multi-AP cooperation. And the increasing Wi-Fi complexity coupled with uncoordinated deployment, we apply machine learning (ML) to solving the optimization problems in Wi-Fi. Finally, the future evolution trend of Wi-Fi will be discussed.
