Wireless LAN (WLAN), uses wireless communication to connect multiple devices within a restricted area, such as a house, school, computer lab or campus. It's a wireless computer network. It allows users to move about the network and remain connected. Through gateways, WLANs can establish connections to the Internet. Wireless LAN has many uses. WLANs are available in a variety of sizes, from small homes to large campuses to fully mobile networks in trains and aeroplanes. Access to the Internet can be made possible by mobile devices connected to 3G and 4G networks. These public access points don't require registration and passwords to be joined in many cases. Other access points can be accessed by paying fees or registration. You can use the Wi-Fi infrastructure to create indoor positioning systems without having to modify it.
Stations are any component that is able to connect to the network's wireless environment. Wireless network interface controllers facilitate all stations. There are two types of wireless stations: clients and wireless access points (WAPs). A WAP is a basestation for a wireless network that transmits or receives radio frequency from wireless devices. Wireless clients can include mobile devices like laptops, PDAs and VoIP phones. They can also be non-portable devices like desktop computers, printers and workstations with wireless network interfaces.
WLAN transmits information using radio waves, much like broadcast media. Data is transmitted in packets. Each packet contains a variety of labels and instructions, which allow routing to the desired location.
