I'm assuming the r^out and r^in are radii of transmission in and out? Hence, transmitting out is harder since clients have less powerful trnasmitters than base stations? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.36.155.105 (talk) 04:05, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Link layer throughput and range distances are highly dependent on location, interference, and application. Without reference to the testing conditions these numbers are meaningless, and just serve to spread misinformation to those assuming that Wikipedia is (always) a reliable source.

in my opinion the ranges should be specified as theoretical and not approximate in a sense of what Jpgs is speaking of 66.189.173.57 (talk) 07:09, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

Indeed it would be nice if all the listed ranges were coming from a normalized measurement, hopefully from a single source. The highly excessive range noted for 802.11n when compared to 802.11g is allowed by STBC, LDPC, MCS 32 and up to 4x4 MIMO (Allow for 2x MRC reception and an optional 2x non-standard beamforming and/or antenna selection advantage). -bkil (talk) 14:59, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Release dates

I updated "Release date" column for 802.11ax/ay/ba/bb.

Those are based on the column "RevCom & Standards Board Final or Continuous Process Approval" found on OFFICIAL IEEE 802.11 WORKING GROUP PROJECT TIMELINES - 2020-11-30

Stream data rate

Hello, just thought I'd let you know the stream data rate is well off in this table. The table list the Table list Stream data rate in Mbit/s and the next colum is Max MIMO stream. As an example 802.11ax 80+80 MHz for a single stream does not equal 11 Gbps. Not even close. 1024-QAM is 10bit per symbol and there are also overheads and code rate to consider but to keep it simple it's not going to be over 1,600 Mbps for 160 MHz carrier, single stream which is a little less than 11,000 Mbps. It looks like it's been multiplied by the Max MIMO stream or using max UE throughput or something. If so then the heading should match what has been done..

Anyway, have fun,
