3. WiFi Mesh Architecture Based on IPQ4019

3.1 What is WiFi Mesh?

A WiFi Mesh network consists of multiple access points (APs) that work together to create a unified wireless network. Unlike traditional WiFi extenders, Mesh networks offer:

✅ Self-healing capabilities – If one node fails, traffic is automatically rerouted.✅ Seamless roaming – Users stay connected while moving between different APs.✅ Optimized path selection – Ensures the best connection between devices and APs.✅ Wired and wireless backhaul support – Enhances flexibility in deployment.

3.2 How IPQ4019 Enhances WiFi Mesh Performance

The IPQ4019-based WiFi Mesh solution supports:

• 802.11s Mesh networking, allowing dynamic and scalable wireless topologies.

• Adaptive routing algorithms, optimizing network paths for low latency.

• Integrated Mesh controller functionality, reducing the need for external management hardware.

• Multi-hop connectivity, ensuring strong signal propagation across large spaces.

• OpenWrt/QSDK compatibility, enabling deep customization for OEM/ODM projects.

These capabilities make IPQ4019 an ideal choice for deploying a stable and scalable WiFi Mesh network.

4. Fast Roaming Technology with IPQ4019

4.1 Understanding Fast Roaming

In traditional WiFi networks, switching between APs can lead to delays, connection drops, and packet loss. Fast Roaming eliminates these issues by enabling seamless transitions between access points.

Fast Roaming is powered by:

• 802.11r (Fast BSS Transition, FT) – Reduces authentication delays when switching between APs.

• 802.11k (Neighbor Reports) – Allows devices to scan nearby APs proactively for a faster handover.

• 802.11v (BSS Transition Management) – Helps devices make informed roaming decisions based on network conditions.

4.2 How IPQ4019 Enables Fast Roaming

The IPQ4019-based Fast Roaming solution provides:

• Seamless handover within 50ms, ensuring uninterrupted streaming and VoIP calls.

• Pre-authentication (PMK caching), eliminating delays from security re-negotiations.

• Optimized roaming algorithms, directing clients to the best AP with the strongest signal.

• Enterprise-grade centralized AP management, ideal for corporate networks.
