Li-Fi for next generation wireless communication:

Abstract

Li-Fi technology uses visible light communication for data transmission and has the potential to transform wireless communication. The benefits offered by this technology have the potential to transform wireless communication, many industries, and improve communication in both indoor and outdoor environment. It provides significantly faster speeds and has better security standards compared to Wi-Fi. In this chapter, the authors discuss significant developments in Li-Fi, such as compatibility with 5G networks, support of IoT, security and privacy concerns. They have also presented an in-depth analysis of Li-Fi, including its potential benefits and drawbacks, as well as its range limitations, interoperability issues, and cost implications. This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview and contribute to the understanding and advancement of the technology by examining the basic ideas, technological advances, and issues of Li-Fi. The goal of this chapter is to improve the understanding and ability to use Li-Fi as a next generation technology in wireless communications.
