Wireless terminal apparatus for automatically changing WLAN standard and method thereof
First Claim
1. A wireless terminal apparatus comprising:
- a wireless communication module for establishing a communication link according to a first wireless local area network (WLAN) standard with respect to a correspondent node in al least one of an ad-hoc mode and an infrastructure mode, and for performing a communication with the correspondent node; and
a central processing unit for controlling the wireless communication module;
wherein, if an operation mode of the wireless communication mode changes, the first WLAN standard is changed to a second WLAN standard, and the communication link is established according to the second WLAN standard.

Abstract
A wireless terminal apparatus having a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) standard automatic change function and method thereof are provided. The wireless terminal apparatus comprises a memory for storing information of a condition change, a wireless communication module for communicating with a predetermined correspondent node according to a first WLAN standard, a communication status detection unit for detecting a communication status of the wireless communication module and determining whether an event occurs satisfying the condition for change, and a central processing unit, changing the first WLAN standard to a second WLAN standard and establishing a communication link. An optimum WLAN standard can be established and a communication is performed according to the WLAN standard.
