Wireless-Fidelity (Wi-Fi) is continuously innovating to cater for the
upcoming customer demands, driven by the digitalisation of everything, both in
the home as well as the enterprise and hotspot spaces. In this article, we
introduce to the wireless community IEEE 802.11be Extremely High Throughput
(EHT), the next generation of Wi-Fi technology. We present the main objectives
and timelines of this new Wi-Fi amendment, and thoroughly describe its main
candidate features and enhancements. We also provide simulation results to
assess the potential throughput gains brought by EHT, and cover important
aspects such as the coexistence with other wireless technologies.
