What is Wireless Fidelity (WiFi)?
Wireless Fidelity (WIFI) is a set of wireless network protocols based on the IEEE 802.11 family of standards that are widely used for computer networking and Internet connectivity, allowing neighboring digital devices to share data using radio waves. These are the most commonly used computer networks in the world, used in home and small office networks to connect laptops, tablet computers, smartphones, and smart speakers to a wireless router to connect them to the Internet, and in public places such as coffee shops, hotels, and airports to offer public Internet access for mobile devices through wireless access points.
Wireless Fidelity (WIFI) is a trademark of the Wi-Fi Alliance, a non-profit organization that limits the use of the word Wi-Fi Certified to devices that pass interoperability certification testing. The Wi-Fi Alliance had over 800 companies from all over the world as of 2017. Globally, over 3.05 billion Wi-Fi activated devices are shipped per year as of 2019. Wi-Fi is based on the IEEE 802 protocol family and is intended to work in tandem with its wired counterpart Ethernet. Compatible devices can connect and wired devices and the Internet through wireless access points. Different IEEE 802.11 protocol standards define different Wi-Fi versions, with different radio systems defining radio bands, maximum ranges, and speeds that can be reached. The 2.4 gigahertz (120 mm) UHF and 5 gigahertz (60 mm) SHF radio bands are the most widely used for Wi-Fi, and these bands are subdivided into several channels. Channels can be shared between networks but only one transmitter can locally transmit on a channel at any moment in time.
