I am doing a comparison between wi-fi and WLAN in terms of data rate, modulation technique, transmission speed, range, no of nodes supported, relay feature featue and basic cell.
I have found the wi-fi's data but unable to find the WLAN feature. Can someone share the required material?
Wifi is a special case of WLAN. Generally speaking, we talk about Wlan for wireless connections, and Wifi for a local wireless connection (home, public places, etc.). Finally, wifi is available as a / b / n commercial standard which is based on the speed of the Wlan! by abuse of language we speak of wifi connection as soon as we connect wirelessly.

Dear Usra Saeed ,
1. WLAN is a type of computer network in a relatively small area that dismisses the use of physical means of inter connectivity.
2. WI-FI is a trademark name to brand devices compliant to IEEE 802.11 standards.
3. Devices in a WLAN essentially use WI-FI branded products.
4. A WI-FI ready device simply means that it is ready for network operation within a WLAN.
Best regards, Yahia
