“If any one technology has emerged the past few years that will be explosive in its impact, it's 802.11.”
– Bill Gates, Chairman Microsoft
Market Update:WLAN is on a roll…
Wi-Fi certified products experienced 504% compound growth since 2000
Certified interoperability and user experience are catalysts 2.4 GHz products represent greater than 40% of
market through 2006* High-speed WLAN expected to contribute to market
refresh and longevity 802.11g will be strong in consumer electronics and virgin
WLAN deployments

Complementary Technologies That Support Combination Usage Models
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth drive demand for one another Gateway platforms such as PCs and set-top boxes
will benefit from Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combination Existing combo platforms: IBM a31 and x30;

Combo Wi-Fi/Bluetooth is a Natural Market, but Coexistence Is Crucial
Testing of available combo platforms confirms coexistence issues*
Adaptive Frequency Hopping may be optional in 1.2, and is only good outside 0.5 meters according to the BT SIG*
MAC-switching is NOT suitable for voice, or adjacent channel interference Sim-Op is the only technology capable of true “coexistence without
compromise”TM
