LiFi Technologies: Revolutionizing Wireless Communication for IoT, 5G, Vehicular, and Underwater Networks

LiFi: How Light Could Power the Future of Wireless Communication
From IoT to submarines, LiFi is turning everyday lights into ultra-fast data networks.

LiFi, or Visible Light Communications (VLC), is emerging as a transformative wireless technology that leverages visible light to transmit data at extremely high speeds. Unlike traditional RF-based systems, LiFi modulates the intensity of LED light sources to send information, which is then received by photodiodes and, in advanced systems, image sensors. This technology not only delivers robust communication capabilities but also provides simultaneous illumination, making it an ideal solution for diverse environments such as IoT ecosystems, vehicular networks, 5G mobile backhaul, and even underwater communication networks where RF signals falter.
