Low-Power Wi-Fi Extends Signals up to 3 Kilometers
Most people have probably experienced the frustration of weak Wi-Fi signals. Even getting a network to cover every corner of a fairly modest house can be a challenge. That’s not a problem for Wi-Fi technology developed by the Australian startup Morse Micro, which just demonstrated a Wi-Fi signal with a 3-kilometer range. Morse Micro has developed a system-on-chip (SoC) design that uses a wireless protocol called Wi-Fi HaLow, based on the IEEE 802.11ah standard. The protocol significantly boosts ...
