Introduction
While using wireless networks , we
are clogged as most of them are
surfing through the same network.
Also the spectrum is congested due
to the demand of Wireless Data
every year.
Downloading a few Gb of data itself
is taking a long time.

Solution -- ?
The solution for the before said
problem is Light Fidelity.(Li-Fi).
It uses the visible light Spectrum for
data Transmission.

Li-Fi -- Definition
Li-Fi is a short term of light fidelity.
Li-Fi refers to wireless communication
systems using light as a carrier
instead
of
traditional
radio
frequencies.
It is one form of Visible Light
Communication.

VLC
Visible Light Communication(VLC),
includes any use of the visible light
portion of the electromagnetic
spectrum to transmit information.

Development of Li-Fi
Haas, a German Scientist working on
D-Light Project at the university of
Edinburgh,coined the term Li-Fi in
2011 in the context of a talk
presenting the new technology at the
TED (Technology Entertainment and
Design) Global conference.

How Li-Fi Works?

Li-Fi is typically implemented using
white LED light bulbs at the downlink
transmitter.
By applying constant current, they
can be illuminated.
By fast and subtle variations of the
current, the optical output can be
made to vary at extremely high
speeds.

How Li-Fi Works?.....contd.

The operational procedure is very
simple-, if the LED is on, you transmit
a digital 1, if its off you transmit a 0.
The LEDs can be switched on and off
very quickly, which gives nice
opportunities for transmitting data.

Giga Shower and Giga MIMO

Practical Applications
Traffic Lights can communicate to the vehicles
and with each other. Cars with the help of LEDs
at the front and back lights transfers
information with each other and can avoid
accidents.

Practical Applications
Light Waves can be used in places such
as atomic and petrochemical plants
where RF waves cannot be used.

Practical Applications
Li-fi can be used in street lamps as
free access points.

Practical Applications

Limitations
Can be used indoor only.
LOS Communication is necessary.
Interfernce with other EM waves may
happen.
