Do Miracast devices implement the latest Wi-Fi core technology? What about technologies on the near horizon?
Miracast uses many of the building blocks that, over the years, have enriched the user experience and increased their trust in Wi-Fi, including Wi-Fi CERTIFIED n (improved throughput and coverage), Wi-Fi Direct™ (device-to-device connectivity), Wi-Fi Protected Access® 2 (WPA2™) (security), Wi-Fi Multimedia™ (WMM®) (traffic management) and Wi-Fi Protected Setup™. Some Miracast devices will also support Tunneled Direct Link Setup (TDLS), which allows them to connect via an infrastructure network.
Miracast is expected to directly benefit from continuous advances in Wi-Fi performance, such as those offered by the upcoming 5 GHz program, based on 802.11ac.
