Li-Fi or Light FidelityTRANSCRIPT
LiFi
HISTORY
• GrahamBell(1880) -Photophone
• Carl Zeiss Jena developed light speaking device.
• Invention of Lasers revolutionized free sapce optics in 1960.
• Gfeller (1978) – Wireless communication using optical spectrum
• Nakagawa laboratory (2003)- Transmission with LeDs.
• VLCC establishment in 2003• Jan 2010 : researchers from Siemens and
Fraunhofer Institute of Telecomm. demonstrated transmission at 500mbps
• December 2010 : St. Cloud Minnesota• July 2011 : live demonstration was presented
VLC
●COMPARISON OVER IR●COMPARISON OVER RF
●WHY LIFI?
Infrared CommunicationInfrared:• Used in devices such as notebook
computers, television remote controls and even some newer mobile phones
• Infrared Data Association (IrDA) has standardized over 30 specifications
VLC over IR• Narrow beam of VLC over IR
– Less opportunity for eavesdropping– Decrease in adjacent device
interference– beam blocked from illuminating more
than one device at once.
• Installation– Easier and cost effective
• Obstruction – VLC : Less obstruction– LOS component dominates thus effect of multipath is small
• Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) – High SNR obtainable in VLC as a consequence of the illumination
requirements.
• Power Efficiency– VLC eliminates severe power efficiency loss
• Safety– IR causes potential visual safety problems
OVER RFRADIO FREQUENCY
– Wide usage in WLAN networks– Compromise information, interfere with
sensitive equipment
VLC over RF• Health Concerns – RF : radiation damage– VLC : no health concerns, no safety
regulations
• Carbon-dioxide footprint– VLC : Significantly reduced due to its
low energy consumption
• Radio wave interference– VLC : no interference with RF based systems exist
• Communication link– VLC: has better channel condition than Radio Frequency
(RF)
• Frequency allocation – VLC : Doesn’t have any frequency allocation issues
present in RF
• Bandwidth – VLC: Is not limited
• Visible Light Communication is not regulated
Why Li-Fi?
• Visible light LED will be used everywhere– The extensive use of LEDs render- an ideal
ubiquitous data transmitter
• Image sensors can be used as receivers– Accurate direction of incoming vector– Aids in applications where RF cannot be deployed
What is Li-Fi?
• Visible Light Communication through LEDs.
• Send data by flashing light at speeds-0s &1s
• Data rates upto 500Mbps
• Employs semiconductor devices containing a photodiode.
• Key aspect : Intensity modulation
• Termed as direct-detection
• Light Source – Optical Access Point
• Employs OFDM

Principles of communication using image sensor
WHITE LEDs• Long life span• High lighting efficacy and color
rendering index• Easy installation.• Low heat productivity. • Low maintenance cost• Energy saving• High safety• Start immediately. • No light pollution• Low light decay. • Green initiative. • Fast response
TECHNICAL ASPECTS OF THE SYSTEM DESIGN
Typical Block Diagram of a VLC system
Modulation/ Demodulation TechniquesOptical Carrier Schemes:
• Optical coherent receivers:– Detect the optical carrier phase.– Require a local oscillator, optical
mixer and optical filter.• LEDs emit incoherent light, signal
power is very less.• Viable modulation is intensity
modulation (IM).• Practical down-conversion technique is
direct detection (DD), much simpler to implement than coherent detection.
Electrical Modulation Techniques
• On-Off keying(OOK) , Pulse Position Modulation(PPM) – widely used in RF and IR communication
systems
– Multipath delay– Channel delay spread(ISI) – limits data
rate to 10Mbps– To overcome - additional receiver
complexity• Orthogonal Frequency Division
Multiplexing(OFDM)– Inherent robustness of OFDM against
multipath effects– Support high data rates without the
need for complex channel equalizers– Offers high bandwidth efficiency– Can easily combine with TDMA and
FDMA
OFDM
• Wireless data transmission technology
• Carrier centers are put on orthogonal frequencies
• ORTHOGONALITY - The peak of each signal coincides with trough of other signals
• Subcarriers are spaced by Δf=1/Ts• Total passband bandwidth will be B ≈ N·Δf (Hz)
Modulation
STANDARDIZATION EFFORTS• Visible Light Communications Consortium(VLCC) Purpose :
– To realize safe, ubiquitous telecommunication system using visible light through the activities of market research, promotion, and standardization.
• Two standards introduced by VLCC(2008): – To avoid fragmentation of proprietary protocols1. JEITA CP-1221 :
• Mainly used for transmitting information on identification and arbitrary data.
2. JEITA CP-1222 : • Differs from JEITA CP-1221 in that it is supposed to be only used
for communication purposes and is slightly more specific in its suggestions.
• IEEE standard - 802.15.7 (2011):– IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area
Networks– Was developed by Task Group 7 (TG7)– Proposes PHY/MAC Specification

LiFi Consortium• Non-profit organization devoted to introduce optical wireless
technology. • Charter members : a leading group of international technology
companies and research institutions in optical communication technology.
• Purposes:– Promote optical wireless communications up to the multi-
gigabit range– Inform potential implementers of the companies and resources
available to help them achieve their product goals– Create whole solutions in anticipation of customer needs– Coordinate with standardization groups and other industry
Wireless communication using visible light will change how we live, how we work, and how we communicate. It offers users virtually unlimited communication capability.
Being a ultra high-speed, high security, biologically friendly communications network it can allow the creation and expansion of seamless computing applications using very large bandwidth high-frequency pulsed light instead of radiowaves and microwaves. In the near future, this technology is predicted to revolutionize the commtn system being affordable and contention free. Thank you.
