Abstract:
In a method for selecting an operation channel, a wireless network connecting apparatus is configured to: identify at least one preoccupied channel; determine a plurality of available channels; evaluate a channel quality of each of the available channels; select one of the available channels based on the channel quality thereof as the operation channel, and to switch to the operation channel; transmit an evaluation packet through the operation channel; determine whether the operation channel needs to be replaced, based on a number of data retransmissions; and exclude the operation channel from the available channels when the determination is affirmative.

Abstract:
A method is for allowing a wireless target device to automatically connect to a target network. The method is to be implemented by a wireless executing device in a wireless network system. In the method, the wireless executing device is configured to establish an ad-hoc wireless network with the wireless target device, and to transmit an access setting to the wireless target device over the ad-hoc wireless network. The access setting enables the wireless target device to connect to the target network automatically.

Abstract:
A control method for implementation in a power supply system includes steps (A), (B), and (C). In step (A), while the power supply system is providing electricity to a load, a control circuit determines, an estimated capacitance value related to an output capacitor. In step (B), while the output capacitor is providing electricity to the load, the control circuit determines an average power value related to the electricity provided by the output capacitor to the load. In step (C), the control circuit determines an estimated hold-up time value related to the power supply system based on a predetermined target voltage value, a predetermined minimum voltage value, the average power value and the estimated capacitance value.
