New record for data transmission distance via wifi

Australian wireless technology company Morse Micro has set a new record for the longest distance for data transmission over Wi-Fi. Using the relatively new HaLow standard (802.11ah), engineers were able to transmit signals up to 2.9 km.

The ability to transmit data via wifi over long distances allows the construction of large-scale IoT device networks, which has extremely great significance in life and production.

The HaLow standard was introduced in 2016, but widespread deployment is just beginning. The technology is optimized for transmitting small amounts of data over very long distances, with low power consumption.

This makes it an ideal solution for setting up Internet of Things (IoT) networks and industrial sensor networks.

During testing, Morse Micro engineers achieved data transmission speeds ranging from 11 Mbps at a distance of 500 meters to 1 Mbps at a maximum distance of 2.9 kilometers. This is enough to maintain a stable video connection over wifi between two points.

What is particularly impressive is that the testing was performed in an urban environment, with many potential sources of interference, demonstrating the high noise immunity of HaLow technology.

Morse Micro engineers used their own developed and manufactured MM6108 chip in the new test. This chip is fully compliant with all standards of the Wi-Fi Alliance (IEEE) and the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

Although the HaLow standard is not suitable for home use due to its low speed, this test clearly demonstrated its potential application in connecting auxiliary IoT devices, such as security systems or public wifi routers, building wireless communication networks between IoT devices in manufacturing, logistics and other fields that require long-distance data transmission.
