802.11
IEEE 802.11 is a set of wireless local area network (WLAN) standards created by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). It specifies the physical and medium access control (MAC) layers of WLAN technology, and defines a common set of requirements for wireless local area networks. The 802.11 standards provide a scalable, secure and easy-to-use wireless network technology that enables seamless integration into existing networks.
There are several different specifications within the 802.11 standard, including 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, and 802.11ac, each of which provides different levels of data transmission rates, frequency ranges, and securit
