Li-Fi, or Light Fidelity, is a data transmission technology that uses LED light to encode information through rapid on-off modulation, surpassing traditional Wi-Fi in speed and efficiency. The technology is still developing, with potential applications in traffic systems, medical environments, and underwater communications, although it faces challenges such as high installation costs and the need for line of sight. Overall, Li-Fi presents opportunities to relieve the congestion of radio spectrum and expand wireless data capabilities.

- 3. Contents Introduction History Present Scenario Working Process Li-Fi v s Wi-Fi Applications Challenges for Li-Fi Conclusion
- 4. Introduction What is Li-Fi ? Light-Fidelity LI-FI is transmission of data through illumination, sending data through a LED light bulb that varies intensity faster than human eye can follow.
- 5. Introduction
- 6. Basic concept LED ie Light emitting diode can be switched on and off faster since operating speed of LED is less than 1 μ s, than the human eye can detect, causing the light source to be appear continuously. This invisible on-off activity enables a kind of data transmission using binary codes. Switching on and LED is a logical ‘1’, switching it off is a logical ‘0’.It is possible to encode data in the light by varying the rate at which LED’s flicker on and off to give different strings of 1s and 0s. Modulation is so fast that human eye doesn’t notice
- 7. History of Li-Fi The technology truly began during the 1990's in countries like Germany, Korea, and Japan where they discovered LED's could be retrofitted to send information. Harald Haas continues to wow the world with the potential to use light for communication . Prof. Harald Haas University of Edinburgh.

- 10. Present Scenario Radio Spectrum is congested but the demand for wireless data double each year .Every thing, it seems want to use wireless data but the capacity is drying up. 1.4 Million Base Stations 5 Billion
- 11. Radio Spectrum Issues regarding Radio Spectrum
- 12. Radio Spectrum Issues Capacity Radiowaves Cost and Expensive Less Bandwidth compared to other spectrums Insufficient spectrum for increasing data Millions of base stations consume huge amount of energy for 1.Transmitting the radio waves 2.To cool the base station cabins 5% Efficiency Efficiency
- 13. Radio Spectrum Issues Availability Available within the range of Base stations Limited availabity Unavailable in aircrafts Less secure(passes through the walls) Security
- 15. Why VLC ? Radio Waves Infrared Rays Visible Rays Ultraviolet Rays X- Rays Gama Rays Gama rays cant be used as they could be dangerous. X-rays have similar health issues. Ultraviolet light is good for place without people, but other wise dangerous for the human body. Infrared, due to eye safety regulation, can only bse used with low power. HENCE WE LEFT WITH THE ONLY THE VISIBLE - LIGHT SPECTRUM. Why only VLC ?
- 17. Li-Fi
- 18. Working Process 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. Hence all that us required is some LEDs and a controller that code data into those LEDs. We have to just vary the rate at which the LED’s . Flicker depending upon the data we want to encode . Thus every light source will works as a hub for data transmission .
- 19. How Li-Fi Works ?
- 20. How Li-Fi Works ? On one end all the data on the internet will be streamed to a lamp driver when the led is turned on the microchip converts the digital data in form of light . A light sensitive device (photo detector) receives the signal and converts it back into original data. This method of using rapid pulses of light to transmit information wirelessly is technically referred as Visible Light Communication .
- 22. Further enhancements can be made in this method, like using an array of LEDs for parallel data transmission, or using mixtures of red, green and blue LEDs to alter the light‘s frequency with each frequency encoding a different data channel. Such advancements promise a theoretical speed of 10 Gbps – meaning one can download a full high- definition film in just 30 seconds
- 24. For giga-speed technologies, the Li-Fi Consortium defined GigaShower, GigaSpot and GigaMIMO models
- 25. Giga Shower and Giga-MIMO are the other models for in- house communication. There a transmitter or receiver is mounted into the ceiling connected to, for example, a media server Giga Shower provides unidirectional data services via several channels to multiple users with gigabit-class communication speed over several metres. This is like watching TV channels or listening to different radio stations where no uplink channel is needed. In case Giga Shower is used to sell books, music or movies, the connected media server can be accessed via Wi-Fi to process payment via a mobile device. Giga Spot and Giga MIMO are optical wireless single- and multi- channel Hot Spot solutions offering bidirectional gigabit-class communication in a room, hall or shopping mall for example.
- 27. Comparision between Li-Fi and Wi-Fi Li-Fi can be thought of as a light-based Wi-Fi. That is, it uses light instead of radio waves to transmit information. Instead of Wi-Fi modems, Li-Fi would use transceiver-fitted LED lamps that can light a room as well as transmit and receive information. WI-FI is great for general wireless coverage within buildings, and li-fi is ideal for high density wireless data coverage in confined area and for relieving radio interference issues . So the two technologies can be considered complimentary.
- 28. Li-Fi vs Wi-Fi
- 30. Application Areas Li Fi technology is still in its infancy .However some areas where it seems perfectly applicable are:- 1 . Traffic Lights : Traffic lights can communicate to the car and with each other. Cars have LED-based headlights, LED-based cack lights, and cars can communicate with each other and prevent accidents in by exchanging information.
- 31. Potential Application of Li-Fi 2. Intrinsically Safe Environment : Visible Light is more safe than RF, hence it can be used in places where RF can't be used such as petrochemical plants .
- 32. Potential Application of Li-Fi Hospitals(In Few Medical Equipements) :
- 33. Potential Application of Li-Fi 3. Airlines : Whenever we travel through airways we face the problem in communication media ,because the whole airways communication are performed on the basis of radio waves. To overcome this drawback on radioways , li-fi is introduced.
- 34. Potential Application of Li-Fi 4. On Ocean Beds : Li-Fi can even wok underwater were Wi-Fi fails completely, thereby throwing open endless opportunities for military/navigation operations.
- 35. Application • There are millions of street lamps deployed around the world. Street Lamps (As free Access Points) : • Each of these street lamps could be a free access point.
- 36. Limitations or Challanges Light can't pass through objects . Interferences from external light sources like sun light, normal bulbs, and opaque materials in the path of transmission will cause interruption in the communication. High installation cost of the VLC systems . A major challenge facing Li-Fi is how the receiving device will transmit back to transmitter. Li-Fi requires line of sight.
- 37. Conclusion The possibilities are numerous and can be explored further. If this technology can be put into practical use , every bulb can be used something like a Wi-Fi hotspots to transmit wireless data.
