Highlights of the WWiSE Proposal The technical aspects of the WWiSE proposal mark a significant improvement in the capability of 802.11 implementations. Key features include: Mandatory use of the approved, pre-existing, worldwide 20MHz Wi-Fi channel width, assuring immediate applicability and deployment in all regulatory jurisdictions.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Enhanced MIMO-OFDM technology is key to achieving a maximum data rate of 135 Mbps in the minimum mandatory 2×2 configuration and a single 20MHz channel to keep implementation costs low, while greatly improving upon simple antenna additions or channel bonding schemes.
Rates up to 540 Mbps, accomplished with a 4×4 MIMO structure and 40MHz channel width (where permissible by regulatory bodies), provide a roadmap for future devices and applications.
Mandatory modes affording backwards compatibility and interoperability with existing Wi-Fi devices in the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands to ensure strong support of legacy deployments.
Advanced forward-error-correction coding option to facilitate maximum coverage and range, applicable in all MIMO configurations and channel bandwidths.

http://www.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=tec A group of technology companies including Texas Instruments Inc. , STMicroelectronics and Broadcom Corp. , on Thursday said they will propose a new wireless networking standard up to 10 times the speed of the current generation.
“
The group says they are submitting a plan for a new standard for a popular short range wireless networking technology known as Wi-Fi — which is used in airports, hotels and coffee shops to access the Web without wires.
The group, calling itself “WWiSE,” said their version of an 802.11n standard would be compatible with the technology currently in use, known by various code names such as 802.11b and 802.11g. Their technology could operate at speeds up to 540 megabits per second.
The group said they planned to submit their proposal to the task force at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers charged with developing an 802.11n standard.
The group’s proposed version of the standard would peak at a speed of 540 Mbps, requiring using a larger communications channel for the signal than most jurisdictions allow. Using the more standard channel size, their 802.11n proposal would peak at 135 Mbps.
They also said they would license their patents necessary to implement their version of 802.11n on a royalty-free basis.
