INTRODUCTION
A wireless LAN (WLAN) is a wireless computer network that links two or more devices using
wireless communication to form a local area network (LAN) within a limited area such as a
home, school, computer laboratory, campus, or office building.
WLAN stands for Wireless Local Area Network. WLAN is a local area network that uses radio
communication to provide mobility to the network users while maintaining the connectivity to
the wired network. A WLAN basically, extends a wired local area network. WLAN’s are built by
attaching a device called the access point(AP) to the edge of the wired network. Clients
communicate with the AP using a wireless network adapter which is similar in function to an
ethernet adapter. It is also called a LAWN is a Local area wireless network.
The performance of WLAN is high compared to other wireless networks. The coverage of
WLAN is within a campus or building or that tech park. It is used in the mobile propagation of
wired networks. The standards of WLAN are HiperLAN, Wi-Fi, and IEEE 802.11. It offers
service to the desktop laptop, mobile application, and all the devices that work on the Internet.
WLAN is an affordable method and can be set up in 24 hours. WLAN gives users the mobility to
move around within a local coverage area and still be connected to the network. Most latest
brands are based on IEE 802.11 standards, which are the WI-FI brand name.
