MediaTek ATSSS convergences 5G and Wi-Fi for ubiquitous connectivity

Written by MediaTek Inc. | January 29, 2024

How can we bridge the gap and create a more synergistic relationship between 5G and Wi-Fi 7?In his article, , Nicolas Babin discusses how these technologies complement each other, and how using technologies like MediaTek ATSSS, they can ultimately provide seamless connectivity between local hotspots to national networks.

"In an era where connectivity is as essential as electricity, two technologies stand out as game-changers: 5G and Wi-Fi 7. Together, they are redefining what it means to be "connected" offering unprecedented speeds, reliability, and coverage. This evolution is not just about faster internet, but also about smarter, more efficient ways to manage and utilize these networks. A key development in this area is Access Traffic Steering, Switching, and Splitting (ATSSS).

ATSSS is a groundbreaking feature in the 3GPP standards, integral to the evolution towards 5G and beyond. It enhances the convergence of 5G and Wi-Fi networks, particularly Wi-Fi 7, allowing mobile devices to simultaneously use both networks for data transmission."
