1 WPER-150GN IEEE 802.11b/g/n USB Half-Mini-Card Module
2I. Introduction i. Overview SparkLAN Communications, Inc. introduces the pioneer of the IEEE 802.11b/g/n USB Half-Mini-Card wireless module --- WPER-150GN. The WPER-150GN USB Half-Mini-Card wireless module is a highly integrated wireless local area network (WLAN) solution to let users enjoy the digital content through the latest wireless technology without using the extra cables and cords. It enables a high performance, cost effective, low power, compact solution that easily fits onto one side of a USB Half-Mini-Card. Compliant with the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standard, the WPER-150GN uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS), Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), BPSK, QPSK, CCK and QAM baseband modulation technologies. A high level of integration and full implementation of the power management functions specified in the IEEE 802.11 standard minimize system power requirements by using WPER-150GN. Longer Range and Faster Speed Comparing to 802.11g technology, 802.11n draft 3.0 standard make big improvement on speed and range. It Increases wireless range by up to 2 times and reduces dead spots in coverage area. The data rate can up to 150Mbps data rate. ii.

3 iii. Product Review 1. Connection Mode ◎Infrastructure Mode Infrastructure mode needs an access point to establish the network, which can provide wireless accesses within valid range for users to communicate with others or transmit data with a wired network. There are several benefits of Infrastructure networking: √ Roaming: a wireless LAN enabled computer can physically move from the operating range of one access point to the other without losing connection. There is a quick association made between new access point and wireless device as the computer traverses from the coverage of one access point to another. √ Range Extension: each wireless LAN enabled computer within the range of access point can communicate with other wireless LAN enabled computers within the effective range from the access point. √ Wired to wireless LAN connection: the access point will establish a bridge between wireless LAN and other wired counterparts. Infrastructure Mode
4◎Ad-hoc Mode The difference between Ad-hoc mode and Infrastructure mode is that Ad-hoc mode does not need the access point or router. When you use this mode, your computer will act as a server within the valid range and connect directly to others in the same LAN workgroup. Ad-hoc Mode It is recommended to choose this mode when there is no access point showed on your wireless network.
