WiFi alliance cancels Huawei membership! What impact will this have on Huawei? Today, the WiFi Alliance announced the suspension of Huawei's membership, which means that Huawei will not be able to participate in the formulation of wireless technology standards in the future. In addition, Bluetooth SIG, which is responsible for approving and authenticating all Bluetooth devices, is likely to suspend the authorization of Huawei's Bluetooth technology.
Background of WiFi Alliance: what does it mean to withdraw Huawei membership?
According to information, Wi Fi alliance is a technology alliance composed of hundreds of companies around the world, including Intel, Qualcomm, Broadcom and apple.
Wi Fi alliance is the standard making and certification body of Wi Fi. It has Wi Fi trademark and can carry out Wi Fi trademark authorization and certification. However, it needs to become a member of Wi Fi alliance first. At present, Wi Fi is also one of the most widely used wireless technologies in the world.
At present, Huawei is only temporarily restricted from participating in Wi Fi alliance activities, so it has little impact on Huawei. Even if Huawei loses its membership, it doesn't mean that Huawei can't launch products based on Wi Fi technology. At most, it doesn't use Wi Fi trademark and certification, which doesn't affect product sales. But it means Huawei can't influence the development of Wi Fi technology and standards in the future.
