Test Report on Terminal Compatibility of Huawei's WLAN Products
Huawei WLAN ● Wi-Fi Experience Interoperability Test Reports Test Report on Terminal Compatibility of Huawei's WLAN Products Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. Test Report on Terminal Compatibility of Huawei's WLAN Products 1 Overview WLAN technology defined in IEEE 802.11 is gaining wide popularity today. WLAN access can replace wired access as the last-mile access solution in scenarios such as public hotspot, home broadband access, and enterprise wireless offices. Compared with other wireless technologies, WLAN is easier to operate and provides higher bandwidth with lower costs, fully meeting user requirements for high-speed wireless broadband services. Wi-Fi terminals are major carriers of WLAN technology and play an essential part in WLAN technology promotion and application. Mature terminal products available on the market cover finance, healthcare, education, transportation, energy, and retail industries. On the basis of WLAN technology, the terminals derive their unique authentication behaviors and implementation methods, for example, using different operating systems. Difference in Wi-Fi chips used by the terminals presents a big challenge to terminal compatibility of Huawei's WLAN products. Figure 1-1 Various WLAN terminals To identify access behaviors and implementation methods of various WLAN terminals and validate Huawei WLAN products' compatibility with the latest mainstream terminals used in various industries, Huawei WLAN product test team carried out a survey on mainstream terminals available on market. Based on the survey result, the team used technologies and methods specific to the WLAN field to test performance indicators of Huawei's WLAN products, including the access capability, authentication and encryption, roaming, protocol, and terminal identification.
