Description

The electricity-saving control method of wireless communication module
[technical field]
The present invention refers to a kind of power supply state by the control wireless communication module especially relevant for electricity-saving control method, reaches the method for power saving.
[background technology]
Because electronic industry and communications industry flourish makes network enter places such as family, school, company, changed the form of human communication greatly in recent years, more facility has been created in the restriction of having broken space-time.Again, because the universalness of portable electronic product (as: notebook computer, personal digital aid (PDA)), and the user of these electronic products, except the network speed that requires to use, more wish to use network everywhere, and do not need to seek or plug network connection again, so WLAN is just arisen at the historic moment.
WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network, be called for short: WLAN), be to see through wireless network module (as: wireless network card (Wireless Card) or pcmcia card) with electronic product, combining wireless bridge (Access Point) carries out area wireless network and links, and utilize the conduction of radiowave as data, see through the network line that wireless bridge connected again, can connect world-wide web, utilize various network resources.
Radio wideband online at present, very universal at home and abroad, many International airports, hotel, restaurant, coffee chain store etc. all provide similar service, as long as the user is after utilizing portable electronic product (as: notebook computer or personal digital aid (PDA)) the grafting wireless network card of oneself, online account number and password that the fan-in network supplier is provided, can use various network resources, and utilize WLAN to be attached to network, have following several advantages:
1. need not be confined to the fixed position at network line place, just computing machine can be connected and go up network.
2. network line and slot specification needn't be yielded to, time, manpower and the material resources cost of cable network wiring can be saved.
3. according to the ordered IEEE802.11b agreement of present U.S. electronic motor engineering association, wireless bridge (Access Point) can provide the transmission speed of 1,100 ten thousand positions of per second (11Mbps), approximately be 200 times of the general networking transmission speed of dialing and connecting device (Modem) per second 50,000 6 kilobits (56Kbps), can satisfy the user a large amount of archives transmission requirements.
4. can be easily in network, increase new user, need not be subject to network can online number of endpoint what.
Based on above-mentioned several advantages, Intel company develops a kind of mobile arithmetic processing system (Centrino) at present, comprise the Pentium-M processor in this mobile arithmetic processing system, 802.11b wireless module and 855 chipsets, it mainly is to be used on the notebook computer, make notebook computer no longer need external pcmcia card with wireless network, can be attached to wireless bridge and network line, and can increase the practicality of notebook computer significantly, and at present general computing machine still needs an external wireless network card, or on its motherboard a built-in 802.11b wireless module, just can be attached to wireless bridge and network line.
Yet, wireless communication module is usually when portable electronic product is started shooting, be unlocked immediately, make this wireless communication module can begin in effective range, detect, search and receiving and transmitting signal, this situation, if the user does not initiatively close this wireless communication module, this wireless communication module will be constantly to around, detect, search and receiving and transmitting signal, thereby cause the meaningless waste of power supply, and this wireless communication module is constantly to extraradial electromagnetic wave, also may cause great threat for we healthy.
[summary of the invention]
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of electricity-saving control method of wireless communication module, can make wireless communication module machine or in a certain fixedly period in due course, be unlocked on one's own initiative or close.
For achieving the above object, the technical solution used in the present invention is: be provided with a detection process in a Control Software, this detection process can be set at least one sense mode, this sense mode can be to the operating state of a wireless communication module, detect, to control the power supply state of this wireless communication module according to the detecting result, with the waste of avoiding causing power supply meaningless.
Compared to prior art, the present invention has the characteristics of power saving.
