Li-Fi (Light Fidelity)• Li-Fi (Light Fidelity )can be thought of as a light-based Wi-Fi.• Technology uses The Visible Spectrum• The term was first used by Harald Haas in his TED Global talk on Visible
Light Communication in 2011• In October 2011 a number of companies and industry groups formed the
Li-Fi consortium, to promote high-speed optical wireless systems.• Researchers at the Heinrich Hertz Institute in Berlin, Germany, have
reached data rates of over 500 megabytes per second using a standard white-light LED.

PRINCIPLE OF LI-FI TECHNOLOGY
• The heart of this technology is a new generation high brightness led’s.
• Visible Light Communication.• These led’s varies in intensity (that is gets on and off) so
fast that a human eye cannot detect it.• If led is on , then we transmit a digital signal 1,and if the
led is off , then we transmit a digital signal 0.• A controller is connected at the back side of these led
bulbs to code data to these led’s.

If led is on , then we transmit a digital signal 1,and if the led is off , then we transmit a digital signal 0.

VISIBLE LIGHT COMMUNICATION
ж Li-Fi is a faster and cheaper version of Wi-Fi, which is based on visible light communication (VLC).
ж The visible light communication is a data communication technique using visible light between 400 THz and 800 THz as an optical carrier for data transmission.

ж Gama rays,X-rays,Ultraviolet rays are harmful for the human body.
ж Infrared rays are also dangerous, due to eye safety regulation, and can only be used with low power.
ж Radio waves are expensive and they are less secure.ж Hence we are left with only the VISIBLE - LIGHT
SPECTRUM which is not harmful for humans .

CONSTRUCTION and WORKING OF Li-Fi (conti..)
ж Li-Fi is implemented using white LED light bulbs at downlink transmitter.
ж By fast variations of the current, optical output can be made to vary at extremely high speeds.
ж An overhead lamp fitted with an LED with signal processing technology streams data embedded in its beam at ultra high speeds to the photodiodes.
ж A receiver dongle then converts the tiny changes in amplitude into an electrical signal, which is then converted back into a data stream & transmitted to a computer or mobile device.
Sl.No Parameters Light Fidelity Wireless Fidelity
1 Speed for data transfer Faster transfer speed (>1 Gbps) Data Transfer speed (150 Mbps)
2 Medium through whichdata transfers occurs
Used Light as a carrier Used Radio spectrum
3 Spectrum Range Visible light spectrum has 10,000 timebroad spectrum in comparison to radio frequency
Radio frequency spectrum range isless than visible light spectrum.
4 Cost Cheaper than Wi-Fi because free banddoesn’t need license and it use light.
Expensive in comparison to Li-Fibecause its uses radio spectrum.
5 Network topology Point to point Point to point
6 Operating frequency Hundreds of Tera Hz (THz) 2.4 GHz
COMPARISON BETWEEN LI-FI AND WI-FI
•Light can't pass through objects.
•A major challenge facing Li-Fi is how the receiving device will transmit back to transmitter.
•High installation cost of the VLC systems
•Interferences from external light sources like sun , light , normal bulbs , opaque materials .
The possibilities are numerous and can be explored further.
In spite of disadvantages if this technology can be put into practical use, every bulb can be used something like a Wi-Fi hotspot to transmit wireless data and we will proceed toward the cleaner, greener, safer and brighter future.
