The WAA and the IEEE SA, have signed a MOU, announcing the establishment of a global strategic partnership that encompasses cooperation in global standards development and promotion. Zhang Ping stated: 'WAA is committed to enhancing the application experience of WLAN in domestic and industrial scenarios. We are honored to cooperate with the IEEE SA, which will speed up the global promotion and application of WLAN application experience standards and certification.' Yuan Yu expressed: 'The IEEE SA has long been committed to promoting innovation and development in the field of electrical and electronics engineering. We are delighted to collaborate with WAA to foster innovation in the field of WLAN application experience.'

In addition to above agreement, WAA has also signed MOUs with a series of strategic partners, such as: authorized testing laboratories, certification bodies, and preferred sections of WAA authorized on e-commerce platforms. These significant collaborations have milestone significance in their strategic development, further promoting the implementation of WLAN performance experience standards and helping to build a more open WLAN industry development platform.

During the forum, WAA released two standards: "Home Scenario: WLAN Single Device Network Performance and Experience Technical Specification" and "Home Scenario: WLAN Single Device Network Performance and Experience Test Method". These two standards are the world's first WLAN performance standards based on service experience in home scenarios, filling the gap in industry performance standards. These two standards clearly define the technical standards for the performance and experience of a single device in a home scenario, aimed at guiding users in purchasing home WLAN devices, assisting operators in evaluating WLAN devices, promoting the development of WLAN technology, enhancing user performance experience in home scenarios, and making home life better. The two standards consolidate all the difficult-to-understand WLAN parameters into six experience-related indicators: coverage, security, stability, connectivity, bandwidth, and latency. By simplifying complexity, they deeply align with the needs of home usage scenarios, helping users to address pain points in home WLAN service experiences.

Subsequently, experts and industry representatives, shared insightful perspectives on trends, standards, and innovative solutions for WLAN. They also had in-depth and enthusiastic interactions and discussions with the participants.

This forum showcased the global trends in the development of WLAN applications and standards, as well as the determination of the IEEE SA and WAA to promote the development of related technologies and standards. Looking forward to the future, WAA will collaborate with global WLAN industry partners to foster the progress of WLAN performance experience standards for a more beautiful digital world.
