4. Introduction to Gi-Fi
One of the greatest improvements made on wireless technology
was Gi-Fi. Gigabit Wireless (Gi-Fi) is the world’s first transceiver
integrated on a single.
Gi-Fi or Gigabit Wireless is the world's first transceiver integrated on a single chip
that operates at 60GHz on the CMOS process
Gi-Fi allows wireless transfer of audio and video data up to 5 Gbps
Gi-Fi is 10 times the current maximum wireless transfer rate usually within a
range of 10 meters
7. Why Gi-Fi ?
The reason for pushing into Gi-Fi technology is because of:
High transfer rate
Low power consumption (Less than 2MW)
Lower cost of production
High range frequency operations
8. Comparing Gi-Fi, Wi-Fi & Bluetooth
Characteristics Gi-Fi Wi-Fi Bluetooth
Frequency 60 GHz 2.4GHz 2.4 GHz
Data Transfer Rate 5 Gbps 11 Mbps 800 Kbps
Range 10 Meters 100 Meters 10 Meters
Specification Authority NICTA IEEE, WECA Bluetooth SIG
Founded 2004 1990 1998
Power Consumption < 2 MW 10 MW 5MW
Frequency 57-64GHz 2.4 GHz 2.4 GHz
Primary Devices

9. Disadvantages of Bluetooth & Wi-Fi
So, to have higher data transfer rate at lower power
consumption we move onto Gi-Fi technology
The bit rates of Bluetooth is 800 Kbps and Wi-Fi has maximum of 11 Mbps
Both are having power consumptions 5mw and 10mw
The lower frequency of operation 2.4GHz for transferring large amount of
videos, audios, data files take hours of time.
10. Architecture of Gi-Fi
The core component of a Gi-Fi system is the subscriber station
It supports standard of IEEE 802.15.3C WPAN
The wireless span is computer network used for communication among
computer close to one person
An 802.15.3C based system often uses small antenna at the subscriber station
It supports line of sight operation
It is the world’s first transceiver integrated on a single chip that operates at
60GHz on the CMOS process.
11. Features of Gi-Fi
High speed of data transfer
Low power consumption
High security
Cost effective
Small size
Quick deployment
Highly portable, high mobility
13. Technology Considerations
Due to less cost of chip so many companies are looking forward to launch with
lower cost
Specifically, wireless HD has a stated goal of enabling wireless connectivity for
streaming high-definition content between source devices and high-definition
displays
14. Conclusion
Within five years, we expect Gi-Fi to be the dominant technology for wireless
networking, providing low- cost, high broadband access.
Gi-Fi can bring wireless broadband to the enterprise in an entirely new way.
