The Mobile Internet LiFi Access (MIELA) is made by PoE-Tic in collaboration with Signify.
THE SOBRIETY OF RADIO WAVES IN MOTION
PoE-Tic develops and integrates alternative wireless network infrastructures that limit cabling work and guarantee sobriety or even total suppression of radio waves.
World leader in lighting, Signify has designed the Trulifi offer which allows transmitting high-speed data LiFi, with a bandwidth of around 150 Mbps.
PoE-Tic and Signify have combined their know-how to meet connectivity and mobility needs in environments that must be free of radio frequencies. This is how the MIELA was born; innovative LiFi equipment that combines Mobility, Sobriety and Scalability.
Mobility: Easily move your wireless LiFi Access Point, depending on your connectivity needs.
Sobriety: Communicate in non-visible light (IR), without any exposure to electromagnetic fields, in reference to the Bee law of February 9, 2015.
Scalability: Evaluate the advantages of LiFi in a mobile version, before opting for connected, low-energy LED lighting that will cover all of your buildings.
THE CONCEPT OF MIELA

An Access Point is embedded inside the MIELA.
Three transceivers are placed at the top of the device which communicate with the USB keys connected to each workstation.
The Access Point is interconnected to the local wired network (RJ45) or via a Power Line Carrier (CPL) terminal supplied as an option.
The MIELA is height adjustable from 1.40 to 2.50 m to make it easier to pass through doors.
Once fully deployed, the MIELA covers an area of about twenty m² in which a maximum of sixteen users can share the high-speed LiFi connection. An optimal speed of 150/140 Mbps is obtained at 1.20 m from the USB key when the MIELA is set at 1.80 m from the ground; with a 60 cm worktop.
MIELA TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

Trulifi configuration (starter kit): an Access Point, three transceivers and a USB key.
The number of connections per MIELA: a maximum of 16 Trulifi 6002 USB sticks can be managed by one Access Point.
Electrical protection: chassis electrical socket with switch + 16 A circuit breaker.
Wired network connection: RJ45 frame F/F socket.
Height (min/max): 1.40 / 2.50 m.
Dimensions of the mobile base: 55 x 55 cm
Wheels Type: Four Ø 95 mm wheels, two of which are fitted with a brake.
Total weight: 24 kg.
PLC configuration (optional): a Dinrail G.hn or HPAV2 module.
MAIN ADVANTAGES
As stated by Dominique Le Bourse, the MIELA makes it possible to have a LiFi wireless connection as close as possible to the users, without the need to carry out costly and tedious preliminary work. In addition, compatibility with PLC allows the MIELA to have broadband access to all power outlets, without any additional wiring.
Thanks to MIELA, nurseries, neighbourhood centres, kindergartens and maternity rooms now have a wireless connection that fully complies with legislation.
Thus, whether for budgetary or health reasons or simply as a precautionary principle, the MIELA is a major asset for adopting LiFi technology without delay.

Li-Fi Conference 2022
The Li-Fi Conference 2022 Edition was a great success. Li Fi Tech News will very soon write articles on the topics treated at the Conference.
What is LiFi?
LiFi, also known as "Light Fidelity" is a wireless optical networking technology, which uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to transmit data. In 2011, professor Harald Haas made a LiFi demonstration at the TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) Global Talk on Visible Light Communication (VLC).
VLC uses light as a medium to deliver high-speed communication like Wi-Fi and complies with the IEEE standard IEEE 802.15.7. The IEEE 802.15.7 is a high-speed, bidirectional, and fully networked wireless communication technology-based standard similar to Wi-Fi's IEEE 802.11.
How does LiFi work?
LiFi is a high speed, bidirectional, and fully networked wireless communication of data using light. LiFi constitutes of several light bulbs that form a wireless network.
When an electrical current goes through to a LED light bulb, a stream of light (photons) emits from the lamp. LED bulbs are semiconductor devices, which means that the brightness of the light flowing through them can change at extremely high speeds. The signal is sent by modulating the light at different rates. The signal can then be received by a detector that interprets the changes in light intensity (the signal) as data. Also when the LED is ON, you transmit a digital 1, and when it is OFF, you transmit a 0.
LiFi Benefits
The primary benefits of LiFi are as follows:
• Security: Provides entirely secure access. Where there is no light there is no data.
• Safety: Does not produce electromagnetic radiation and does not interfere with existing electronic systems.
• Localisation: Allows localisation due to the small coverage area of LiFi access point - localisation can be used for very precise asset tracking.
• Data density: Provides ubiquitous high-speed wireless access that offers substantially greater data density (data rate per unit area) than RF through high bandwidth reuse.
