3 QUALCOMM ATHEROS RESTRICTED – NDA
First wave of 11ac made Gigabit Wi-Fi possible
3x faster than 11n
− Up to 1.3 Gbps (3-stream)
− Wider channels (80 MHz)
− Data encoding (up to 256 QAM)
Mandatory 5GHz band
− More (and wider) channels
− Less interference
Lower power-per-bit
− Extends battery life
− Mobile devices communicate
more quickly and sleep longer

5 QUALCOMM ATHEROS RESTRICTED – NDA
Single-User MIMO Serves one device at a time
Multi-User MIMO Multi-user beamforming (MUBF) serves
multiple devices simultaneously
Spatial re-use multiplies available capacity (2-3x)
Reduces wait time for all clients

Improves throughput, latency and
power consumption for all clients
11ac devices with MU-MIMO o Router speaks to groups of MU devices
o Up to 3 simultaneous MU devices per group
Legacy devices (single-user MIMO) o Still served individually by the router
o Benefit from increased airtime availability
