We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Wireless LAN", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release GPS receiver combines RF and antenna modules from TDC (Telecom Design Communications), which we summarised at the time by saying "TDC's Antenova M10214 can track up to 20 satellites simultaneously and maintain a fix at speeds of more than 500m/s". A couple of weeks before, we featured the news release Wi-Fi module puts embedded systems online from TDC (Telecom Design Communications): "The ConnectOne Secure Socket iWi-Fi LAN device server offers a wide range of embedded Internet functionality".
 
In January 2008, we covered the news from Arrow Electronics (UK) concerning its Wireless Solutions - take a look at Wireless chipsets and modules come together which says: "Brochure covers modules and chipsets for ISM, ZigBee, Bluetooth, WLAN, GSM/GPRS and 3G applications".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Ezurio, Embedded modules make wireless LAN access easy, as well as Wi-Fi technology handles voice, video and data from Broadcom Corp, and Quad-band antenna comes onboard from Alpha Micro Components.
