3. What is Li-fi(LIGHT FIDELITY)? Light based Wi-Fi Light is
used instead of radio waves to transmit information. Transceiver
fitted LED lamps acts like Wi-Fi modems. LED lamps can light a room
as well as transmit-receive information. Sending data through a LED
light bulb that varies in intensity faster than human eye can
follow.
4. History Professor Harald Haas Prof. Harald Haas, from
university of Edinburgh in the UK is the founder of Lifi. On 20th
July 2011 he used a table lamp with an LED bulb to transmit a video
of blooming flowers that was then projected onto a screen behind
him. During the event he periodically blocked the light from lamp
to prove that the lamp was indeed the source of incoming data.
5. Present Scenario 1.4 Million Base Stations 5 Billion Mobile
Stations
6. Present Scenario Radio Spectrum is congested but the demand
for wireless data double each other. Data in the form of tera bytes
travel every week or month. Every one want to use wireless data but
the capacity is drying up resulting in different issues. So, what
can carry this excess demand in future
7. Issues Of Using Radio Spectrum Spectrum is 10,000 times
greater than that of radio frequency. Light waves available
everywhere. Highly efficient since LED consumes less energy. Cannot
penetrate through walls. Hence data can be secured.
8. Who can resolve this issue?
9. Principle of Li-Fi When LED is ON ,we transmit a digital
signal 1 and if the LED is OFF , we transmit a digital signal
0.
10. Working Principle of Li-Fi
11. Why Li-fi use Visible Light Communication? Gama rays,
X-rays , Ultraviolet rays are harmful for the human body. Infrared
Rays are also dangerous due to eye safety regulation and can only
be used with low power. Radio waves are expensive and they are less
secure. Therefore, only Visible rays or visible light spectrum is
left which is not harmful for humans. Radio Waves Infrared Rays
Visible Rays Ultraviolet Rays X-Rays Gamma Rays
12. Characteristics Wireless Fidelity Light Fidelity Range 100
meters Based on LED Power Consumption Medium Low Cost Expensive in
comparison with LiFi because it uses Radio Spectrum Cheaper than
Wifi because free band doesnt need license and uses light Security
Moderate Secured Highly Secured Data transfer rate Within MBPS
Greater than GBPS Medium Through which data transfer Use radio
Spectrum Use light as a carrier Spectrum Range Radio Spectrum Range
is less than visible light spectrum Visible light spectrum is
10,000 times broader than Radio spectrum range
13. Applications of Li-Fi Traffic Scenario:- Lifi can be used
to communicate with the LEDs of cars. This might prevent accidents
by exchanging information when the vehicles are too close. Using
Lifi, street lights can be used to send information about the road
condition of the car.
14. Home And Small Offices In home and small offices, Li-fi can
be used to communicate with the devices such as: Laptops Internet
access HD Video Streaming Printer
15. Street Lamps & Ocean Beds An Ocean Beds Li-Fi can even
work under water where wifi fails. Communication between Naval
becomes easy. Street Lamps There are millions of Lamps deployed
around the world. Each of these street lamps could be a free access
point.
16. Merits & Demerits Merits Data rate greater than 10Gbps
theoretically allowing HD film to be downloaded in 30 seconds. Can
be used everywhere even in RF areas, since light waves will not
interfere with radio waves. As light waves cannot penetrate through
walls, hence data cannot be intercepted which results in providing
secured communication Mostly LED light bulbs are used which
consumes less energy. Hence cost efficient. Demerits A major
challenge of Li-Fi is how the receiving device will transmit back
to receiver. Data transmission can be easily blocked by any object
placed in front of LED source. Interferences from external light
source like sunlight, in the path of transmission can cause
interruption in the communication.
17. Conclusion Researchers are developing a micron size LEDs.
1000 micron sized LED can fit into an area required by 1sq.mm large
single LED. A 1sq.mm sized array of micron sized LEDs could
therefore communicate 1000x1000(i.e.) million times as much
information as a single 1sq.mm LED. Thus ,if Li-Fi technology can
be put into practical use, every bulb can be used as an alternative
to Wi-Fi hotspot.
