Introduction
Li-Fi is a label for wireless-communication systems using
light as a carrier instead of traditional radio frequencies, as in Wi-Fi. The term was first used in this context by Harald Haas from the University of Edinburgh in his TED Global talk on Visible Light Communication.
LI-Fi is transmission of data through illumination sending
data through a LED light bulb that varies in intensity faster than human eye can follow.

History
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

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.
So what can carry this excess demand in the future .
Working of Li-Fi
Operational procedure is simple : if the LED is on, you transmit a
digital signal 1, if its off you transmit a 0 signal. 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 LEDs flicker
depending upon the data we want to encode. Further enhancements can be made in this method, like using an array of LEDs for parallel data transmission.

Visible Light Communication (VLC)

Visible Light Communication (VLC) is the basic principle
behind Li-Fi. It uses visible light between 400 THz (780 nm) and 800 THz (375 nm) as optical carrier for data transmission and illumination. A data rate of greater than 100 Mbps is possible by using high speed LEDs with appropriate multiplexing techniques. VLC data rate can be increased by parallel data transmission using LED arrays where each LED transmits a different data stream. There are reasons to prefer LED as the light source in VLC while a lot of other illumination devices like fluorescent lamp, incandescent bulb etc. are available.

Why VLC ??

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

ECONOMIC VALUE
A free band that does not need license. High installment cost but very low maintenance cost. Cheaper than Wi-Fi. Theoretical speed up to 1 GB per second : Less time &
energy consumption. No more monthly broadband bills. Lower electricity costs. Longevity of LED bulb : saves money. Light doesn't penetrate through walls : secured access.
16
Limitations
The main problem is that light can't pass through objects, so if
the receiver is inadvertently blocked in any way, then the signal will immediately cut out. "If the light signal is blocked, or when you need to use your device to send information -- you can seamlessly switch back over to radio waves".
Reliability and network coverage are the major issues to be
considered by the companies while providing VLC services. 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 can be complemented by large-scale implementation of VLC though Adopting VLC technology will reduce further operating costs like electricity charges, maintenance charges etc.

Future Prospects
This research report categorizes the global VLC technology
market; based on component, applications, and geography. Li-Fi uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) which are rapidly gaining in popularity for standard light bulbs and other domestic and commercial purposes. They are expected to be ubiquitous in 20 years
22
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.
