[!IMPORTANT] This topic is part of the WiFiCx driver model. WiFiCx is the Wi-Fi driver model released in Windows 11. We recommend that you use WiFiCx to take advantage of the latest features. The previous Wi-Fi driver model WDI is in maintenance mode and will only receive high priority fixes.
The WDI_PHY_TYPE enumeration defines the PHY types.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_UNKNOWN:0Specifies an unknown or uninitialized PHY type.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_ANY:0Specifies an unknown or uninitialized PHY type.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_FHSS:1Specifies a frequency-hopping spread-spectrum (FHSS) PHY.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_DSSS:2Specifies a direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) PHY.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_IRBASEBAND:3Specifies an infrared (IR) baseband PHY.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_OFDM:4Specifies an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) 802.11a PHY.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_HRDSSS:5Specifies a high-rate DSSS (HRDSSS) 802.11b PHY.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_ERP:6Specifies an extended-rate 802.11g PHY (ERP).
WDI_PHY_TYPE_HT:7Specifies a high-throughput (HT) 802.11n PHY. Each 802.11n PHY, whether dual-band or not, is specified as this PHY type.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_VHT:8Specifies a very high-throughput (VHT) 802.11ac PHY.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_DMG:9Added in Windows 10, version 1607, WDI version 1.0.21.
Specifies a Directional Multi-Gigabit (DMG) 802.11ad PHY.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_HE:10Added in Windows 10, version 1809. WDI version 1.1.7.
Specifies a High-Efficiency (HE) 802.11ax PHY.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_EHT:11Specifies an extremely high-throughput (EHT) 802.11be PHY.
WDI_PHY_TYPE_IHV_START:0x80000000Specifies the start of the range that is used to define proprietary PHY types that are developed by an independent hardware vendor (IHV).
WDI_PHY_TYPE_IHV_END:0xffffffffSpecifies the end of the range that is used to define proprietary PHY types that are developed by an IHV.
The WDI_PHY_TYPE enum is a value in the WDI_TLV_PHY_TYPE_LIST and WDI_TLV_PHY_STATISTICS TLVs.
