WLAN
A Wireless Local Area Network links devices via a wireless
distribution method (typically spread-spectrum or OFDM radio), and
usually provides a connection through an access point to the wider
internet. This gives users the mobility to move around within a local
coverage area and still be connected to the network.
WPAN
A Wireless Personal Area Network is a personal area network - a
network for interconnecting devices centered around an individual
person's workspace - in which the connections are wireless. Typically,
a wireless personal area network uses some technology that permits
communication within about 10 meters - in other words, a very short
range.
