Application Notes
Wireless Gigabit (WiGig) is an up-and-coming technology expected to enable wireless connectivity of up to 7 Gb/s in data, display and audio applications. The organization sponsoring this technology is the Wireless Gigabit Alliance. Its board of directors comprises AMD, Atheros, Broadcom, Cisco, Dell, Intel, Marvell, MediaTek, Microsoft, NEC, Nokia, NVIDIA, Panasonic, Samsung, Toshiba, and Wilocity. Keysight Technologies, Inc. serves as a contributing member of the alliance.
The industry standard relevant to WiGig is IEEE 802.11ad. Draft 1.0 of the specification was published in January 2011. Per the draft standard, signals will occupy the unlicensed 60-GHz frequency band and all 802.11 ad-compliant devices will provide backward compatibility with the 802.11 standard. As a result, tri-band devices will operate at 2.4, 5.0 and 60 GHz.
