One of the issues with the popular wireless standards currently is that they either have very limited bandwidth (e.g. Bluetooth), or they’re subject to inconsistent performance, due to interference and congestion (e.g. Wi-Fi). There are, however, newer standards emerging, such as 802.22ad or WiGig that aim to solve both the problems for short-range communication between devices. In order to complement the enhancements to Wi-Fi Cer tified ac, Wi-Fi Alliance introduced Wi-Fi Certified WiGigin 2009 to accelerate the commercial availability of WiGig devices. As it operates in the less-crowded 60 GHz frequency band, WiGig enables extremely high-performance multigigabit connectivity and low latency for a range of applications, such as wireless docking, augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR), multimedia streaming, gaming, and networking. The standard introduced many prominent features, like narrow beam forming technology, which is a method of directing the transmission signals to the direction of the receiving device to reduce interference. Due to the advent of Internet-of-Things (IoT) and machine type communication (MTC), an exponential growth in wireless traffic is expected in the near future. This would mean an increase in current bandwidth assuming the same spectrum efficiency. For instance, the industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) RF band in the 5.4 GHz region is approximately 500 MHz, and this is mainly used by wireless fidelity (WiFi). This bandwidth is already getting saturated, which is one of the driving forces of WiGig.
