Maximizing Wi-Fi Performance: The Role of a MAC & PHY Engineer
- Thread starter HowardH
- Start date
In summary, a MAC and PHY engineer plays a crucial role in maximizing Wi-Fi performance. They are responsible for designing and implementing the media access control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY) protocols that govern how devices communicate over a wireless network. This involves optimizing data transmission, managing network congestion, and ensuring compatibility with different devices. By constantly monitoring and improving these protocols, a MAC and PHY engineer can help improve Wi-Fi speeds, reduce interference, and enhance overall network performance.
