At CES 2016 in Las Vegas, Celeno Communications announced the availability of its ControlAIR multi-access point (AP) WiFi controller for the home network. The technology is intended to enable "zero-touch" provisioning and self-optimizing WiFi throughput in the home across multiple smart WiFi access points, repeaters, extenders, IoT hubs and gateways. The company is also integrating the ControlAIR software suite with RDK-B and OpenWRT gateway and router software frameworks.
ControlAIR is intended to increase throughput using multiple access points in the home by adding smart cluster connectivity and dynamic Radio Resource Management (RRM). The software is designed to improve coverage and expand capacity and speeds of wireless home networks to 1 Gbps, and also reduce induced interference on adjacent networks.
