CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 OVERVIEW
Airborne™ is a line of highly integrated 802.11b/g modules. The Airborne™ Radio Module delivers a
highly integrated solution for consumer and industrial wireless applications using the industry-standard
IEEE 802.11b/g platform. It delivers both a cost and space efficient solution using a small profile design
and direct down SMT high density header (Zero-IF) connection to the system board.
The two-chip design significantly reduces product cost and form factor. It is a complete high-speed
wireless solution that uses the latest 802.11b/g chipset from Marvell which is backward compatible with
the 802.11b DSSS standard and adds the new 802.11g OFDM (orthogonal Frequency Division
Multiplexing) standard support. This chip set includes integrated antenna connectors that provide a direct
connection from the radio to the antenna. This bypasses the system board, which simplifies the
integrator’s board design. The radio is a true upgrade option because no soldered connections are
required. It can be upgraded in the field or added to a managed product configuration.
1.2 CONFIGURATIONS
The Airborne™ Radio Module consists of an 802.11b/g radio transceiver and Media Access Controller
(MAC) with a Compact Flash (CF) interface.

Table 9 - Pin Definition and Descriptions
Pin feature
Description
A[9:0]
Decoding of the system address space is performed by the CEx-. During I/O accesses
A[5:0] decode the register. A[9:6] are ignored when the internal HAMASK register is set
to the defaults used by the standard firmware. During attribute memory accesses A[9:1]
are used.
D[15:0]
The host interface is primarily designed for word accesses, although all byte access
modes are fully supported. See CE1-, CE2- for a further description. Note that attribute
memory is specified for and operates with even bytes accesses only.
CE1-, CE2-
The PC Card cycle type and width are controlled with the CE signals. Word and Byte
wide accesses are supported, using the combinations of HCE1-, HCE2-, and HA0 as
specified in the PC Card standard.
WE-, OE
HOE and HWE- are only used to access attribute memory. Common Memory, as
specified in the PC Card standard, is not used in the MODULE. HOE- is the strobe that
enables an attribute memory read cycle. HWE- is the corresponding strobe for the
attribute memory write cycle. The attribute space contains the Card Information
Structure (CIS) as well as the Function Configuration Registers (FCR).
IORD-, IOWR
IORD-and HIOWR- are the enabling strobes for register access cycles to the MODULE.
These cycles can only be performed once the initialization procedure is complete and
the MODULE has been put into IO mode.
REG
This signal must be asserted for I/O or attribute cycles. A cycle where HREG- is not
asserted will be ignored as the MODULE does not support common memory.
INPACK
This signal is asserted by the MODULE whenever a valid I/O read cycle takes place. A
valid cycle is when HCE1-, HCE2-,- HREG-, and HIORD- are asserted, once the
initialization procedure is complete.

Pin feature
WAIT
Description
Wait states are inserted in accesses using HWAIT-. The host interface synchronizes all
PC Card cycles to the internal MODULE clock. The following wait states should be
expected:
Direct Read or Write to Hardware Register
• 1/2 to 1 MCLK assertion of HWAIT- for internal synchronization. Write to Memory
Mapped Register, Buffer Access Path, or Attribute Space (Post-Write)
• The data required for the write cycle will be latched and therefore only the
synchronizing wait state will occur.
• Until the queued cycle has actually written to the memory, any subsequent access by
the Host will result in a WAIT.
Read to Attribute Space and Memory Mapped Registers
• WAIT will assert until the memory arbitration and access have completed.
Buffer Access Paths, BAP0 and BAP1
• An internal Pre-Read cycle to memory is initiated by a host Buffer Read cycle, after the
internal address pointer has auto-incremented. If the next host cycle is a read to the
same buffer, the data will be available without a memory arbitration delay.
• A single register holds the pre-read data. Thus, any read access to any other memorymapped register (or the other buffer access path) would result in the pre-read data
becoming invalidated.
• If another read cycle has invalidated the pre-read, then a memory arbitration delay will
occur on the next buffer access path read cycle.
IREQ
Immediately after reset, the HIREQ- signal serves as the RDY/BSY (per the PC Card
standard). Once the MODULE firmware initialization procedure is complete, HIREQ- is
configured to operate as the interrupt to the PC Card socket controller. Both Level Mode
and Pulse Mode interrupts are supported. By default, Level mode interrupts are used,
so the interrupt source must be specifically acknowledged or disabled before the
interrupt will be removed.
Register Interface
The logical view of the MODULE from the host is a block of 32-word wide registers.
These appear in IO space starting at the base address determined by the socket
controller.
Hardware Registers
(HW)
• 1 to 1 correspondence between addresses and registers.
• No memory arbitration delay, data transfer directly to/from registers.
• AUX base and offset are write-only, to set up access through AUX data port.
Note
Page 12
All register cycles, including hardware registers, incur a short wait state
on the PC Card bus to insure the host cycle is synchronized with the
MODULE's internal MCLK.

CHAPTER 3
APPLICATION
3.1 DESIGN GUIDELINES
The Module can be implemented into various solutions. Any design must meet the following guidelines:
Provide 3.3 V to all Vdd power pins.
Provide ground connections to all Vss pins.
Provide a connection to a suitable antenna.
Caution!
The 3.3 V power supply should be a low-noise design, with less than 150 mV ripple at the
maximum average transmit current. The power supply should also be designed to provide
sufficient power to handle the Module’s power-up inrush current.
3.2 EMI/RFI GUIDELINES
To minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), pay strict
attention to power and signal routing near the Module. As much as possible, the keep-clear area
below the Module should be a solid copper ground plane. It is anticipated that the Module will be
mounted on a board with a committed ground plane. Ensure the inter-connect has a designed
impedance of 50-75 Ohms.
To keep signal impedance as low as possible, connect the ground plane to internal ground planes
by several vias. Ground signals to the Module connector should connect directly to the ground
plane below the Module. Individual ground connections to the Module should have a solid ground
connection, preferably directly to the ground plane on the same surface side where the Module
resides. Do not connect ground pins directly to an inside layer ground plane using vias.
Keep interconnects from the Module connector as short as possible on the mounting layer. All
inboard signals–including pin numbers–must immediately transition to a different routing layer
using a via as close to the connector as possible. Outboard signals (odd pin numbers) should also
be kept to a minimum length.
3.3 CIRCUIT BOARD LAYOUT PRACTICES
When considering capacitance, calculations must consider all device loads and capacitances due
to printed circuit board traces. Capacitance due to the traces depend on a number of factors,
including the trace width, dielectric material from which the circuit board is made, and proximity to
ground and power planes.

3.4 MOUNTING GUIDELINES
Special care must be observed when placing the Module. In particular:
The antenna must not be mounted beneath any other printed circuit boards, components, or
metallic housing.
The proximity of the antenna to large metallic objects can affect the range and performance of
the Module.
Packaging and enclosure designers must carefully review the placement of the Module in the
enclosure to minimize interference or blocking sources.
For mechanical clearance, performance, and emissions reasons, there should be no components
placed on the main printed circuit board facing the Module. This region should be clear of
components.
Note
Suggested mounting: Use three non conductive spacers with the following
dimensions:
O/D Diameter 0.187 x I/D Diameter 0.096 x Length 0.156

RADIO FREQUENCY CHANNELS
A.1. USING RADIO FREQUENCIES
IEEE 802.11 devices such as the Airborne™ Radio Module use radio-frequency signals in the
Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band between 2.4 GHz and 2.5 GHz to communicate with
each other.
Due to spread spectrum effect of the signals, a radio sending signals on a particular channel uses
the frequency spectrum 12.5 MHz above and below the center channel frequency. As a result, two
separate WLANs in the same general vicinity that use neighboring channels (channel 1 and
channel 2, for instance) can interfere with each other. Applying two channels that allow the
maximum channel separation decreases the amount of channel cross-talk and provides
performance gains over networks with minimal channel separation.
The preferred channel separation between the channels in neighboring wireless networks is 25
MHz (5 channels). Neighboring channels are 5 MHz apart. To minimize adjacent channel
interference, you can apply a maximum of three different channels within your WLAN. There are
11 usable wireless channels in the United States. It is recommended that you start using channel
1 and grow to use channel 6, and 11 when necessary, as these three channels do not overlap.
The following chart lists the 802.11 radio-frequency channels that are used.

A.2. AUTHORIZED FREQUENCY CHANNELS BY REGION
International wireless frequency standards are a result of an IEEE 802.11WLAN committee
agreement. These standards enable the wireless data communication industry to develop
interoperable, low-cost, integrated equipment such as the Airborne™ Radio Module.
Authorized frequency channels vary by geographic region. The United States, Canada, Japan,
Spain, France, and the ETSI, or remaining European countries, each have their own authorized
frequencies.
The following table illustrates authorized channels of operation according to geographic region.
Though this list is believed to be accurate at time of publication, consult local regulatory authorities
before using these channels of operation.

APPENDIX B:
GLOSSARY
This appendix provides a glossary of wireless terminology.
802.11
Wireless standards developed by the IEEE that
specify an "over-the-air" interface for wireless Local
Area Networks. 802.11 is composed of several
standards operating in different radio frequencies.
802.11a
802.11a is an IEEE specification for wireless
networking that operates in the 5 GHz frequency range
(5.725 GHz to 5.850 GHz) with a maximum 54 Mbps
data transfer rate. The 5 GHz frequency band is not as
crowded as the 2.4 GHz frequency, because the
802.11a specification offers more radio channels than
the 802.11b/g. These additional channels can help
avoid radio and microwave interference.
802.11b
802.11b is the international standard for wireless
networking that operates in the 2.4 GHz frequency
range (2.4 GHz to 2.4835 GHz) and provides a
throughput of up to 11 Mbps.
802.11g
802.11g is similar to 802.11b, but this forthcoming
standard provides a throughput of up to 54 Mbps. It
also operates in the 2.4 GHz frequency band but uses
OFDM radio technology in order to boost overall
bandwidth.
Access Point
An interface between a wireless network and a wired
network Access Points can combine with a distribution
system such as Ethernet to create multiple radio cells
(BSSs) that enable roaming throughout a facility.
Ad-Hoc mode
A wireless network composed of only stations and no
Access Point.
Association service
An IEEE 802.11 service that an enables the mapping
of a wireless station to the distribution system via an
Access Point.
Asynchronous transmission
Type of synchronization where there is no defined time
relationship between transmission of frames.
Authentication
The process a station uses to announce its identify to
another station. IEEE 802.11 specifies two forms of
authentication: open system and shared key.
Bandwidth
The amount of transmission capacity available on a
network at any point in time. Available bandwidth
depends on several variables such as the rate of data
transmission speed between networked devices,
network overhead, number of users, and the type of
device used to connect PCs to a network.
Basic Service Set (BSS)
A set of 802.11-compliant stations that operate as a
connected wireless network.
Page 20
Airborne™ Wireless LAN Radio Module Data Book
QUATECH Confidential
TBD
Rev. A 6/12/2006
Bits per second (bps)
A measurement of data transmission speed over
communication lines based on the number of bits that
can be sent or received per second.
BSSID
Basic Service Set Identifier. A 48-bit identifier used by
all stations in a BSS in frame headers. Usually MAC
address.
Clear channel assessment
A function that determines the state of the wireless
medium in an IEEE 802.11 network.
Client
Any computer connected to a network that requests
services (files, print capability) from another member
of the network.
Command Line Interface (CLI)
A method of interacting with the Airborne WLN Module
by sending it typed commands.
Direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS)
Combines a data signal at the sending station with a
higher data rate bit sequence, which many refer to as
a chip sequence (also known as processing gain). A
high processing gain increases the signal’s resistance
to interference. The minimum processing gain that the
FCC allows is 10, and most products operate under
20.
Disassociation service
An IEEE 802.11 term that defines the process a
station or Access Point uses to notify that it is
terminating an existing association.
Distribution service
An IEEE 802.11 station uses the distribution service to
send MAC frames across a distribution system.
GPIO
General Purpose Input/Output refers to the digital I/O
lines.
Host application
The environment within which the Module is
embedded - typically includes a processor, which
forms part of an OEM’s product and application.
Hot spot
Same as an Access Point, usually found in public
areas such as coffee shops and airports.
IEEE
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, an
international organization that develops standards for
electrical . The organization uses a series of numbers,
like the Dewey Decimal system in libraries, to
differentiate between the various technology families.
Independent Basic Service Set Network
(IBSS Network)
An IEEE 802.11-based wireless network that has no
backbone infrastructure and consists of at least two
wireless stations. This type of network is often referred
to as an Ad-Hoc network because it can be
constructed quickly without too much planning.
Page 21

Rev. A 6/12/2006
Infrastructure mode
A client setting providing connectivity to an Access
Point. As compared to Ad-Hoc mode, whereby PCs
communicate directly with each other, clients set in
Infrastructure mode all pass data through a central
Access Point. The Access Point not only mediates
wireless network traffic in the immediate
neighborhood, but also provides communication with
the wired network. See Ad-Hoc and AP.
LAN application
A software application that runs on a computer, which
is attached to a LAN, Intranet or the Internet, and
using various protocols can communicate with the
Module.
Local Area Network
A system of connecting PCs and other devices within
the same physical proximity for sharing resources
such as Internet connections, printers, files and drives.
When Wi-Fi is used to connect the devices, the
system is known as a wireless LAN or WLAN.
Medium Access Control Layer
One of two sub-layers that make up the Data Link
Layer of the OSI reference model. The MAC layer is
responsible for moving data packets to and from one
network node to another across a shared channel.
MPDU
MAC Protocol Data Unit, the unit of data exchanged
between two peer MAC entities using the services of
the physical layer (PHY).
MSDU
MAC Service Data Unit, information that is delivered
as a unit between MAC service Access Points (SAPs).
Peer-to-peer network
A wireless or wired computer network that has no
server or central hub or router. All the networked PCs
are equally able to act as a network server or client,
and each client computer can talk to all the other
wireless computers without having to go through an
Access Point or hub. However, since there is no
central base station to monitor traffic or provide
Internet access, the various signals can collide with
each other, reducing overall performance.
RS-232
An EIA standard that specifies up to 20 Kbps, 50 foot,
serial transmission between computers and peripheral
devices.
RTOS
An operating system implementing components and
services that explicitly offer deterministic responses,
and therefore allow the creation of real-time systems.
An RTOS is characterized by the richness of the
services it provides, the performance characteristics of
those services, and the degree that those performance
characteristics can be controlled by the application
engineer ( to satisfy the requirements of the
application).

Service Set Identifier (SSID)
An identifier attached to packets sent over the wireless
LAN that functions as a "password" for joining a
particular radio network (BSS). All radios and Access
Points within the same BSS must use the same SSID,
or their packets will be ignored.
Telnet
A virtual terminal protocol used in the Internet,
enabling users to log into a remote host.
Transceiver
A device for transmitting and receiving packets
between the computer and the medium.
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)
A commonly used protocol for establishing and
maintaining communications between applications on
different computers. TCP provides full-duplex,
acknowledged, and flow-controlled service to upperlayer protocols and applications.
Wide Area Network (WAN)
A communication system of connected PCs and other
computing devices across a large local, regional,
national or international geographic area. Also used to
distinguish between phone-based data networks and
Wi-Fi. Phone networks are considered WANs and WiFi networks are considered wireless LANs.
Wi-Fi
Wirekless-Fidelity: Wi-Fi is the common name used
for 802.11 wireless network technology.
Wi-Fi Alliance
A non-profit international association formed in 1999
to certify interoperability of wireless LAN products
based on IEEE 802.11 specification.
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
A security protocol for wireless LANs defined in the
IEEE 802.11 standard. WEP is designed to provide
the same level of security as a wired LAN.
WLAN
Also referred to as a wireless LAN. A type of localarea network that uses high-frequency radio waves
rather than wires to communicate between nodes and
provide network connectivity.
