Topic

Artificial Intelligence for Wireless Networking

Abstract

Wi-Fi has moved from a nascent technology to one that is core enabler of digitalized user experience. It is at center of Internet of Things (IoT), virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), real-time location systems (RTLS), and smart devices, to name just a few. And yet, even after years of evolution and innovation, wireless networks today require hands and heads. There is a need for an autonomic wireless management system that "watches" the network, "understands" normal functioning, "analyzes" real-time performance against norms, and then "acts" to automatically solve known problems. This is where machine learning and artificial intelligence come in. In this session, you'll learn why it's likely that future Wi-Fi networks will be completely dominated by AI. You'll also find out what the artificial intelligence-enabled Wi-Fi network of tomorrow will look like and how AI will help in delivering richer and differentiated user experiences, security, and more.
