Compare IEEE 802.11 and osi model?

Answer:
802.11 and OSI are two different things. The 802.11 committee is responsible for setting the wireless standards for wireless communication. The OSI model is not a standard at all, but a theoretical model of how communications work and utilizes many standards in that process.

The 802.11 standards are incorporated in the OSI model, at layer 1 and layer 2 of the model.
