LG Innotek has developed a next-generation automotive Wi-Fi module that uses a larger channel bandwidth ― an industry first ― raising hope that the LG Group affiliate can improve its presence in the in-vehicle communication module market, which has been dominated by Japanese companies.
The company said Tuesday that it had succeeded in developing the Wi-Fi 6E module that uses the 6-gigahertz bandwidth to provide data transmission speeds about three times faster than the existing Wi-Fi 5 module.
