Introduction to LiFi
Wireless communication through Light illumination

Present Wireless Communication

Radio spectrum 1.4 Million base stations, 5 billion Mobile

stations 600tb data every month

Wireless Communication, a utility

Issues regarding Radiospectrum

Capacity
Radiowaves Cost and Expensive

Less Bandwidth compared to other spectrums

Insufficient spectrum for increasing data

Efficiency Millions of basestations consume huge amount of energy for 1.Transmitting the radio waves 2.To cool the base station cabins 5% Efficiency

Availability
Available within the range of Base stations

Limited availabity
Unavailable in aircrafts

Security:
Less secure(passes through the walls)

Expensiv e, Limited Bw Less Secure

Good to use Used But harmful to for human hospit als

Is not used generally

Which is not used so far Safe to use Larger bandwith

How Li-Fi?
Normal light power is replaced by LED light power The LED bulb will hold a micro-chip that will do the job

of processing the data. The light intensity can be manipulated to send data by tiny changes in amplitude Properties of LED: (Fundamental property of LI-FI) 1.Intensity can be modulated into very high speeds and varying amplitudes 2.LED can be switched on and off with very high speed

Infrared rays in Remote control

Single data stream 20000 bits per second Not usable for vedio streaming

LI-FI

Light power(LED) Multiple data stream High speed Technologies used in LI-FI: SIM-OFDM and Spatial modulation

LI-FI

Advantages
Largers bandwidth (10,000 times the radio bandwidth) High efficiency More availability Highly secure

DISADVANTAGE
Presence of Light is essential

APPLICATIONS

1.In RF restricted Environments

2.Hospitals(In few medical instruments)

In vehicles and traffic lights,reducing accidents and traffic congestion

Street lamps(as free access points)

In Aircraft cabins

Conclusion
Overcomes the limitations of radio spectrum High speed of 10 Gbps can be achieved Lifi can solve the foressential problems of wireless communications these days
