WiGig Alliance Publishes 60 GHz Spec 1.1

The Wireless Gigabit Alliance (WiGig) announced the publication of its certification-ready multi-gigabit wireless specification. A WiGig Bus Extension (WBE) specification has also been released to Adopter members. The WiGig Bus Extension and WiGig Serial Extension (WSE) enable high-performance multi-gigabit wireless connectivity among multiple devices, from storage devices to other high-speed peripherals and applications such as Wireless Docking. WiGig is finalizing the WSE specification and plans to publish it to Adopters in the second half of this year.

“We are marching toward enabling the fastest wireless technology for practical applications such as Wireless Docking, Wireless Display and Wireless Networking,” said Dr. Ali Sadri, WiGig Alliance president and chairman. “Our continued diligence in the MAC-PHY specification development process and collaboration with the Wi-Fi Alliance to build an interoperable multi-gigabit wireless solution based on our latest specification will soon provide an unprecedented user experience that changes people’s lives.”http://www.wigig.org
