Enterprises of today, including offices, campus, hospitality, and retail rely on Wireless networks which continue to grow at a prolific rate and have become the communication medium of choice for human devices to IoT devices in enterprise environments.
Furthermore, according to Gartner, there are expected to be more than 64B IoT devices worldwide by 2025 and that 1.53 ZB of data will be transferred over-the-air as a result.

The 6 GHz band was recently opened for Wi-Fi use in the U.S.A and a few other countries after a period of about 20 years from the last band allocation.
Furthermore, the wireless networks of the day are not static in nature. A variety of Wi-Fi and Non-Wi-Fi interferences severely impact the performance during different times of the day.
The solution is an effective Radio Resource Management (RRM) to utilize the limited radio-frequency spectrum resources and radio network infrastructure as efficiently as possible.
The legacy wireless network is driven through a Wi-Fi
controller deployed on site. The controller is limited on
its computational power and storage and can only
observe and control wireless in the local environment.
The legacy controllers implement static channel scan
which gives the recommendation of the current moment
but cannot adapt to the dynamic changes in the wireless
environment that the networks face.
Furthermore, there is no specific way to measure the impact of a bad wireless plan on the overall user experience. In the bid to increase coverage area, Coverage Overlap due to high Transmit power (Tx) is another challenge that causes contention and degrades the user experience.
