Wi-Fi Direct: The End of BlueTooth?


Wi-Fi Alliance, which includes member like Csico and Intel anounced a new technology of gadget convergence. It will be a next generation of Wi-Fi. Based on the news in www.pcworld.com, this next Wi-Fi, called Wi-Fi Direct can be the end of Blue Tooth.

Wi-Fi Direct is be able to connect many devices in a more ranges. It will be able make devices to build simple peer-to-peer wireless connections without the need for a wireless router or hotspot. Based on the issue, Wi-Fi Direct will connect at existing Wi-Fi speeds-- up to 250 mbps, more than known Wi-fi, 110 mbps. Wi-Fi Direct could overstep BlueTooth technology, which just enable connect shorter range and slower transfer speeds than known Wi-Fi, with benefit consumpt lower energy.


"Wi-Fi Direct represents a leap forward for our industry. Wi-Fi users worldwide will benefit from a single-technology solution to transfer content and share applications quickly and easily among devices, even when a Wi-Fi access point isn't available," said Wi-Fi Alliance executive director Edgar Figueroa. "The impact is that Wi-Fi will become even more pervasive and useful for consumers and across the enterprise."

Wi-Fi Direct will include support for WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) and AES encryption for more secure connections and measures are being developed to enable IT admins to exert some control over Wi-Fi Direct networks within their environment. But Wi-Fi alliance expects the project will be finished in mid 2010, so lets wait the new technology convergence era.
