of wifi
the Wireless access point connects a wire less group devices to an adjacent wired
Local area network. An access point resembles a network hub, relaying data between connected
wireless devices in addition to a single connected wired device, most often an Ethernet
hub or switch, allowing wireless devices to communicate with other wired
devices
Wireless
adapters allow devices to connect to a wireless network. These adapters connect
to devices using various internal or external interconnects such as PCI mini PCI,
USB, express card, Cardbus and PC cards.
The security standard, WiFi protected setup allow embedded devices with limited graphical user inter face to connect to the internet with ease. Wi-Fi protected setup has two types. The push botton configuration and pin configuration. These embedded devices are also called the internet of things and are low-power, battery operated embedded systems. A number of Wi-Fi manufactures design chips and modules for embedded Wi-Fi such as gain Span.
Distance records:
Distance records using non-standard devices include 400 km.. transferring about
3mb of data between the two mountains.
dBi gain
rating of omni antennas
higher
gain rating dbi indicates further deviation generally towards the horizontal from
a theoretical, perfect isotropic radiator. And therefore the further the
antenna can project a usable signal, as compared to a similar output power on a
more isotropic atenna.
