Huawei is reportedly making significant strides in Wi-Fi 7 technology, with expectations that this standard will see broad implementation starting next year. This development positions Huawei as a leader in the field of wireless communication technology.
According to digital bloggers on Weibo, Huawei, China’s largest IC design company, has almost secured projects with various network communication device manufacturers for its Wi-Fi 7 chips, indicating another leap ahead in the industry.
Huawei’s strength in communication technology is well-established, making its lead in Wi-Fi 7 chips unsurprising. The company has also been a dominant force in Wi-Fi 6, holding a significant number of related patents.
Statistics show that Huawei was a major contributor to the Wi-Fi 6 standard (IEEE 802.11ax), with 281 proposals (11.2% of all proposals) and 477 related patents (18.2% of total patents), ranking first among wireless device manufacturers.
Previously, Japanese company Buffalo had to enter a patent licensing agreement with Huawei to use Wi-Fi 6 technology, as Huawei’s essential patents for Wi-Fi 6 were unavoidable.
There are 606 evaluated Wi-Fi 6 essential patent families, with the most holdings by companies like Qualcomm, Huawei, Intel, LG, Marvell/NXP, MediaTek, Broadcom, and ZTE. These eight companies hold over 90% of the patents deemed essential for the Wi-Fi 6 standard.
With its strong patent portfolio, Huawei stands as a formidable player in the Wi-Fi technology domain, challenging other companies in patent competition.
Huawei’s advancements in Wi-Fi 7 technology and its leading position in Wi-Fi 6 patents underscore the company’s strength and influence in the field of wireless communication. Huawei’s progress in Wi-Fi 7 chips is set to accelerate the adoption of this new standard, further solidifying its role as a key player in the industry.
