This week we acknowledge actress and inventor Hedy Lamarr. Inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 2014, her invention of “frequency hopping” helped pave the way for modern-day Wi-Fi and other wireless tech.
Happy 458th birthday to Galileo Galilei! Born in Pisa, Italy, Galileo was the first to aim a telescope into the night sky. Through his lens, he saw the four largest moons of Jupiter, and the Galilean moons were the first objects found to orbit a planet other than Earth.
Chris' QUIC talk is the best I have seen. Now that QUIC is used on many platforms learning this protocol will be critical for analysts moving forward. #wireshark
The FCC just announced ET Docket No. 21-352, “Commission Begins the Process for Authorizing 6 GHz Band Automated Frequency Coordination Systems Public Notice” starting November 30, 2021. Full PN at https://t.co/w94zZHErMR
I just added them all up... since October, @netally has put out 12 significant product releases. Fastest pace of innovation I've ever seen coming out of R&D.
@stevecrowley I think you’re right, Steve. I did a quick look and believe 802.11n was previous record holder with PAR approved 9-11-2003 and final RevCom approval on 9-11-2009.
@GjermundRaaen 802.11-2020 adds PHY Clauses 23 - Sub 1 GHz (S1G), 24 - China Directional Multi-Gig (CDMG), and 25 - China Millimeter Multi-Gig (CMMG), but also support for 6GHz throughout. Expect .11ax to publish this month but not rolled up until 802.11-2024.
@GjermundRaaen Well... that doesn’t include 802.11ax, which should also be published soon but separately. That’s another 820 p. So, technically 1620 more pages of light reading. )
