Li-Fi technology: A Era of New Data Transmission

The main focus of this paper is to clarify the concept and working of Li-Fi technology. In present era, wireless communication plays an important role in day to day life. Wifi is the most used wireless technology which transmits data through radio frequencies. However, during multiple accesses WiFi is facing many challenges related to speed, security and efficiency. Also, WiFI emits radio waves which are harmful in hospitals for patients and cannot be used in underground communication and airplanes. These limitations of WiFi are overcome by Li-Fi technology. The term Li-Fi stands for Light Fidelity which uses visible light communication (VLC) to transfer data at high speed. In this paper, a detailed study on Li-Fi technology, its working and future scope is discussed.
