IEEE802.11ac is the next generation WLAN and follow-on to the family of 802.11 standards. IEEE802.11ac was approved as a standard in December of 2013 after five years of work. The goal is to deliver multi-station throughput at least 1 GBps and a single link throughput of 500 Mbps. The technology accomplishes this through wider channel bandwidth (160 MHz), more MIMO spatial streams, and extreme density modulation (256-QAM). 802.11ac exists only in the 5 GHz band, yet will coexist with previous standards (IEEE802.11a/n).
Specifics and differences of IEEE802.11ac than IEEE802.11n are:
