Testing

6 GHz Wi-Fi Test Release Time:2021-11-03

In the past, Wi-Fi send signals on 2.4 and 5GHz frequency bands, but the current Wi-Fi usage extends to 6GHz frequency band. It will bring more than 1200 megahertz of new bandwidth to Wi-Fi 6E devices, while the total bandwidth of 5GHz band is 500 megahertz. The 6GHz frequency band can accommodate 7 new 160MHz channels, and is completely free from interference from previous generation equipment.

1. Channel list

 

Current 6 GHz band opened in European Union and the United Kingdom is 500 MHz in total.

Current 6 GHz frequency bands opened in the United States, Japan, South Korea, Brazil, etc., is 1200MHz in total.

3.  National Regulation Requirements

 

The goal of national regulation agencies is to expand the use of the 6 GHz band without disrupting existing services.

Existing 6 GHz equipment worldwide is fixed satellite service (FSS) ground-to-space uplink, point-to-point fixed service (FS) link.

Limiting the signal energy of RLAN on existing receivers, it means limiting the power of Wi-Fi 6E devices.

Standard Power Devices

 

Currently, only the United States has made regulations on technical requirements for this type of equipment, and other countries and regions have not yet considered allowing the use of such equipment. The allowed use frequency ranges in the United States are 5.925-6.425 GHz and 6.525-7.125 GHz, which are also based on competitive channel access and occupancy rules. The maximum allowable power of AP devices is 36dBm, and the maximum allowable power of Client devices is 30dBm, both of which need to meet requirement of AFC control.
