About This Item

Legal Notices*

P802.11ay/D2.0, Jul 2018 is a draft technical standard for enhanced throughput in wireless LAN operation above 45 GHz, with a focus on the MAC and PHY requirements that support very high-speed communications in license-exempt bands. It is relevant to communication, networking, and broadcast technologies as well as computing and electronic systems that need short-range, high-capacity links. As an inactive document, P802.11ay/D2.0, Jul 2018 is mainly useful for reference, comparison, and technical review.

P802.11ay/D2.0, Jul 2018 overview

This specification addresses an amendment to Part 11 of the wireless LAN family, extending MAC and PHY behavior for operation above 45 GHz. In practice, that means it defines requirements intended to support higher throughput, directional transmission, and performance considerations for very high-frequency unlicensed operation. P802.11ay/D2.0, Jul 2018 is most relevant when evaluating design choices, protocol behavior, and implementation details for systems built around advanced wireless connectivity in constrained, high-frequency environments.

Typical use cases

This standard is typically consulted for short-range wireless equipment that depends on extremely wide bandwidth and high data rates, such as fixed wireless links, in-room connectivity systems, and specialized network devices operating in license-exempt bands above 45 GHz. It may also be relevant to chipset, module, and device developers working on MAC/PHY integration, interoperability studies, or performance verification for communication systems. P802.11ay/D2.0, Jul 2018 can help guide engineering decisions where throughput, directionality, and frequency-specific behavior are central.

Why this standard matters

For teams designing or evaluating high-frequency wireless LAN products, this standard helps create a common technical reference for requirements, test planning, and implementation alignment. Using P802.11ay/D2.0, Jul 2018 can reduce ambiguity in procurement and development workflows by clarifying the expected MAC and PHY scope for operation above 45 GHz. It is also useful for comparing draft-stage technical expectations against later finalized requirements and for supporting consistent performance assessments across components and systems.
