Wi-Fi uses both single carrier direct-sequence spread spectrum radio technology, part of the larger family of spread spectrum
systems and multi-carrier OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division
Multiplexing) radio technology. Unlicensed spread spectrum was first
authorized by the Federal Communications Commission
in 1985 and these FCC regulations were later copied with some changes
in many other countries enabling use of this technology in all major
countries. These regulations then enabled the development of Wi-Fi, its
onetime competitor HomeRF, and Bluetooth.
Wi-Fi was invented in 1991 by NCR Corporation/AT&T (later Lucent & Agere Systems) in Nieuwegein,
the Netherlands. It was initially intended for cashier systems; the
first wireless products were brought on the market under the name
WaveLAN with speeds of 1 Mbit/s to 2 Mbit/s. Vic Hayes, who was the primary inventor of Wi-Fi and has been named the 'father of Wi-Fi,' was involved in designing standards such as IEEE
802.11b, 802.11a and 802.11g. In 2003, Vic retired from Agere Systems.
Agere Systems suffered from strong competition in the market even
though their products were high quality, as many opted for cheaper
Wi-Fi solutions. Agere's 802.11a/b/g all-in-one chipset (code named:
WARP) never made it to market, and Agere Systems decided to quit the
Wi-Fi market in late 2004.
