Emerging Wireless Connection Technologies, Standards, and Applications
Matter: Unified Wireless Connection and Smart Home Standard
In 2019, the smart home open standard Matter was first proposed by Amazon, Apple, Google, Samsung SmartThings, and the ZigBee Alliance, initially referred to as the IP Connected Home Project (CHIP). The project aims to develop and promote a new connection protocol that eliminates patent fees, integrating different protocol components like Zigbee, Thread, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi into an overall standard to simplify the development costs for smart home device manufacturers and improve compatibility between products.
In 2021, Matter replaced the original CHIP as the official name of the standard, and the ZigBee Alliance was renamed the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA). As a new connection standard for smart homes, Matter provides a unified connection protocol based on IP, allowing smart locks, smart speakers, smart kettles, air conditioners, TVs, curtains, lights, and other devices from different brands to interact more smoothly on the Matter platform, thus providing better practicality and user experience for home products.
In October this year, the CSA announced the official release of the Matter 1.0 technical specification, and the certification program was opened simultaneously. Smart home brands can conduct relevant testing and certification for their products, and once certified, they can start selling devices with the Matter logo.
The Matter 1.0 version operates over Wi-Fi, Thread, and Ethernet, using low-power Bluetooth for device debugging, supporting a range of smart home devices, including lighting and electrical, HVAC control, curtains, security sensors, door locks, and media devices.
Analysis Report on 55 Domestic Wireless Connection Chip Manufacturers
This is a milestone event in the history of smart home development, indicating that alliance members from various segments of the IoT ecosystem, from chips to retail, can now have a complete solution, providing a new generation of products that offer interconnectivity across brands and ecosystems, allowing consumers to experience better privacy protection, security, and convenience.
Existing devices commonly use Zigbee, Z-Wave, and other IoT wireless protocols. Although they cannot connect directly to Matter, the foundation for connection is there – bridging is the key for Matter to connect to these existing devices. By integrating such bridging gateways in new devices, existing sensor networks can interoperate with the Matter network.
Analysis Report on 55 Domestic Wireless Connection Chip Manufacturers
Bridging devices in the Matter ecosystem allow users to control their Matter and non-Matter devices without distinction.
In the Matter ecosystem, non-Matter devices can serve as “bridged device” nodes, completing the mapping between other protocols (such as Zigbee) and the Matter protocol through the bridging device, thus enabling communication with Matter devices in the system.
WiFi 6 and WiFi 7: High Bandwidth, Multi-User, and Low Latency to Meet Extremely High Throughput (EHT) Application Needs
WiFi 6 (802.11ax) is the latest generation of Wi-Fi standards following Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), introducing new technologies such as OFDMA, uplink/downlink MU-MIMO, BSS Coloring, and TWT. WiFi 6 has significantly improved performance, with bandwidth and concurrent user numbers increased by 4 times compared to Wi-Fi 5, along with lower latency and energy consumption.
Wi-Fi 6 is designed to address high-density wireless access and high-capacity wireless services, such as outdoor large public places, high-density venues, indoor high-density wireless offices, electronic classrooms, and other scenarios. In these application scenarios, the number of client devices accessing the Wi-Fi network has seen tremendous growth, and the increasing voice and video traffic also puts pressure on Wi-Fi networks. For instance, 4K video streams (bandwidth requirement of 50Mbps/person), voice streams (latency less than 30ms), and VR streams (bandwidth requirement of 75Mbps/person, latency less than 15ms) are highly sensitive to bandwidth and latency. If network congestion or retransmission leads to transmission delays, it will significantly impact user experience. The high bandwidth and user capacity of WiFi 6 can meet these demands, and market forecasts suggest that WiFi 6 is expected to replace WiFi 5 and become mainstream within three years.
As WLAN technology evolves, homes, enterprises, and commercial locations are increasingly relying on Wi-Fi as their primary means of access. New applications that have emerged in recent years have higher requirements for throughput and latency, such as 4K and 8K video (transmission rates may reach 20Gbps), VR/AR, gaming (latency requirements below 5ms), remote work, online video conferencing, and cloud computing. Although the Wi-Fi 6 standard has particularly focused on user experience in high-density scenarios, it still cannot fully meet the higher demands for throughput and latency.
Therefore, IEEE 802.11 has released a new revision standard, IEEE 802.11be, which is the next-generation standard WiFi 7 with Extremely High Throughput (EHT). Wi-Fi 7 builds on Wi-Fi 6 and introduces technologies such as 320MHz bandwidth, 4096-QAM, Multi-RU, multi-link operation, enhanced MU-MIMO, and multi-AP collaboration, thereby providing higher data transfer rates and lower latency. Wi-Fi 7 is expected to support throughput of up to 30Gbps, approximately three times that of Wi-Fi 6.
Analysis Report on 55 Domestic Wireless Connection Chip Manufacturers
Wi-Fi 7 supports the following new features:
1. Supports a maximum bandwidth of 320MHz: To achieve a maximum throughput of no less than 30Gbps, Wi-Fi 7 will continue to introduce the 6GHz band and add new bandwidth modes, including contiguous 240MHz, non-contiguous 160+80MHz, contiguous 320 MHz, and non-contiguous 160+160MHz.
2. Supports Multi-RU mechanism: In Wi-Fi 6, each user can only send or receive frames on the specific RU assigned, greatly limiting the flexibility of spectrum resource scheduling. To further enhance spectrum efficiency, Wi-Fi 7 defines a mechanism that allows multiple RUs to be assigned to a single user.
3. Introduces higher-order 4096-QAM modulation technology: The highest modulation method in Wi-Fi 6 is 1024-QAM, where modulation symbols carry 10 bits. To further enhance the rate, Wi-Fi 7 will introduce 4096-QAM, allowing modulation symbols to carry 12 bits. Under the same coding, Wi-Fi 7’s 4096-QAM can achieve a 20% rate increase compared to Wi-Fi 6’s 1024-QAM.
4. Introduces Multi-Link mechanism: To efficiently utilize all available spectrum resources, it is imperative to establish new spectrum management, coordination, and transmission mechanisms across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz. The working group has defined technologies related to multi-link aggregation, mainly including enhanced multi-link aggregation MAC architecture, multi-link channel access, and multi-link transmission.
5. Supports more data streams, enhanced MIMO functionality: In Wi-Fi 7, the number of spatial streams increases from 8 in Wi-Fi 6 to 16, theoretically doubling the physical transmission rate. Supporting more data streams also brings a powerful feature – distributed MIMO, meaning that 16 data streams can be provided not just by one access point, but by multiple access points working together, requiring collaboration among multiple APs.
6. Supports coordinated scheduling among multiple APs: The coordinated scheduling among multiple APs in Wi-Fi 7 includes time-domain and frequency-domain coordination planning between cells, interference coordination between cells, and distributed MIMO, which can effectively reduce interference between APs and greatly improve the utilization of air interface resources.
The application scenarios for Wi-Fi 7 include: video streaming, video/voice conferencing, wireless gaming, real-time collaboration, cloud/edge computing, industrial IoT, immersive AR/VR, and interactive remote healthcare.
BLE Auracast: Low Latency, Low Power, and Better Audio Experience
Recently, the Bluetooth Alliance announced the completion of the long-awaited LE Audio series specifications, which not only greatly enhance Bluetooth audio performance but also support hearing assistance functions, and released a new broadcast audio technology called Auracast. This new broadcast audio technology will allow audio source devices (such as smartphones) to broadcast one or more audio streams simultaneously to countless audio receiving devices (such as TWS earphones, speakers, hearing aids, etc.). Auracast will change the way we interact and communicate with others and the outside world, providing users with a better listening experience.
Auracast broadcast audio will enable all types of public places – from large venues like airports and conference centers to smaller venues like stadiums, cinemas, and places of worship – to provide high-quality audio experiences, enhancing customer satisfaction and accessibility. Typical application scenarios include:
1. Silent screens: Public places with silent TV screens, such as airports, stadiums, and waiting rooms, will provide a more satisfying viewing experience, allowing viewers to use their own Bluetooth earplugs or hearing devices to listen to the audio of the TV broadcasts.
2. Tour systems: Public places providing tours, such as museums, conference centers, and tourist attractions, can allow visitors to use their own Bluetooth earplugs or hearing devices while participating in the tour, creating a more engaging tour experience.
3. Multilingual support: Public places supporting simultaneous interpretation services (such as conference centers) can provide enhanced audio experiences, allowing attendees to use their own Bluetooth earplugs or hearing devices to listen to audio in their desired language.
4. Hearing enhancement/assistance: Venues deploying public broadcasting systems (such as airports, cinemas, auditoriums, conference centers, religious venues, etc.) can allow visitors to receive broadcast audio directly in their own Bluetooth earplugs or hearing devices, providing a higher quality audio experience. When used in this way, Auracast broadcast audio can serve as a high-quality, low-cost next-generation assistive listening system (ALS), improving the audio experience for visitors with hearing impairments.
Ultra-Wideband (UWB): High-Precision Ranging and Indoor Positioning Technology
Like WiFi and Bluetooth, ultra-wideband (UWB) is a short-range wireless communication protocol. Since Apple introduced the UWB chip U1 and AirTag functionality in its iPhone 11 in 2019, UWB has entered the public eye and become a popular application for short-range wireless communication and precise positioning. UWB was originally limited to military use, and in 2002, the FCC released UWB commercialization regulations, allowing UWB to use unlicensed frequency bands, with a frequency range from 3.1 to 10.5 GHz. The FCC and ITU define UWB as antenna transmissions with a signal bandwidth exceeding 500 MHz. This pulse-based communication system’s each transmission pulse can occupy at least 500 MHz of UWB bandwidth.
UWB does not use a carrier but utilizes nanosecond (ns) to picosecond (ps) level non-sinusoidal narrow pulses to transmit data. The time modulation technology used greatly enhances its transmission speed while consuming relatively low power and having precise positioning capabilities. Unlike the continuous carrier methods commonly used in wireless communication, UWB uses extremely short pulse signals to transmit data, with bandwidth occupancy reaching several GHz, allowing maximum data transmission rates of hundreds of Mbps. Due to the use of extremely short pulses, UWB devices emit very low power, only a fraction of current continuous carrier systems.
Analysis Report on 55 Domestic Wireless Connection Chip Manufacturers
Compared with other short-range communication protocols, the spectral density of UWB is as shown. UWB can operate efficiently in signal-dense environments with almost no interference. It operates within a frequency range of 3.1-10.6 GHz, with required transmission power ranging from 0.5mW to 41.3 dBm/MHz. UWB’s transmission distance is around 10 meters, with transmission rates up to 480Mbps, which is dozens of times higher than Bluetooth, making it ideal for large-scale multimedia information transmission.
Analysis Report on 55 Domestic Wireless Connection Chip Manufacturers
The main applications of UWB include communication and sensing, positioning and tracking, and radar detection. Compared to WiFi and Bluetooth positioning technologies, UWB’s high-precision ranging and indoor positioning capabilities have the following advantages:
1) High positioning accuracy: Bandwidth determines the signal distance resolution capability (proportional relationship). UWB excels in distance resolution capability, with accuracy potentially reaching hundreds of times that of traditional systems under specific conditions. The bandwidth of ultra-wideband pulse signals is at the nanosecond level, with positioning accuracy typically less than a few centimeters.
2) High security: UWB’s low transmission power allows its signals to be well concealed among other types of signals and environmental noise, making it difficult for traditional receivers to identify and receive. They must use the same spread spectrum code pulse sequence as the transmitter for demodulation, thus ensuring strong system security.
3) Strong anti-interference capability: From a radio frequency mechanism perspective, UWB’s emitted pulse waves have stronger anti-interference capabilities than continuous electromagnetic waves, and the frequency bands UWB operates in (3GHz-10GHz) have significantly fewer external interference signals compared to 2.4G wireless positioning technologies.
4) High transmission rate: Channel capacity is proportional to bandwidth, and UWB has a wide bandwidth, thus offering a high transmission rate.
5) Low power consumption: In short-range communication applications, UWB transmitters generally operate at power levels below 1mW; lower transmission power can extend system operating time and also results in minimal electromagnetic wave radiation to the human body.
