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.

OLEDCOMM Discussed Their Latest LiFi Innovations and Next Challenges With François Sorel on BFM Business Tech & Co

Oledcomm Interview


Benjamin Azoulay, president and founder of Oledcomm, was invited as a guest on BFM Business Tech & Co. He was interviewed by François Sorel, a French journalist and broadcaster present on RMC , BFM Business and Tech & Co. They discussed on Oledcomm latest LiFi innovations and their next challenges.

Here are some of the highlights, LiFi tech News has taken from the interview:

1) Oledcomm reconfirmed their interest in any environment where WiFi is prohibited, often for cybersecurity reasons.

2) WiFi poses too many cybersecurity problems for the military to install it on its premises.

3) Oledcomm introduced their first two-gigabit-per-second, point-to-point product (LiFiMAX2G) with a 25-degree opening angle.

4) They are also aiming in releasing a LiFi system with up to four gigabits per second by the end of this year.

5) Their dream is to have commercial LiFi systems running at up to 100 Gbps by 2025.

Benjamin Azoulay, stated the following:

“So just a reminder, LiFi is a wireless optical communication, that is to say that we will use LEDs that will flash at very high speed 30 million times per second, 30 MHz to connect to the Internet or simply to communicate at very high speed.”

“We have developed a chip that will eventually allow Wi-Fi to be integrated into smartphones. It takes a little bit of time, but we are starting to have industrial ruggedized tablets that are starting to integrate this technology like a tablet from the company Getac.”

“At CES in Las Vegas, we introduced our first two-gigabit-per-second, point-to-point product with a 25-degree opening angle. We'll probably be over four gigabits per second by the end of the year, so it's going pretty fast. And our dream is to be at 100 gigabits per second by 2025.”

Jakajima and The Light Communication Alliance (LCA) Announced The 3rd Li-Fi Conference Coming Up In June 2023

Jakajima and The Light Communication Alliance (LCA)


Jakajima and The Light Communication Alliance (LCA) Announced The 3rd Li-Fi Conference Coming Up on the 27th of June 2023. We will keep you posted on any updates in terms of speakers and programs within the next few months.

LiFi is a wireless communication technology which uses light to transmit data and position between devices. The technology is similar to Wi-Fi but uses light to transmit data instead of radiofrequency in terms of its end-use.

Using light to transmit data allows LiFi to offer several advantages, most notably a wider bandwidth channel, the ability to safely function in areas otherwise susceptible to electromagnetic interference (e.g. aircraft cabins, hospitals, military), and offering higher transmission speeds.

It is interesting to realise that lights that illuminate offices, homes, cars, factories, our streets and more locations also can connect us to data and hence power the growing demand for connectivity and speed.

Li-Fi Conference is an annual event held online and in a physical venue where professionals from all over the globe gather together in order to share applications, ideas, LiFi trends, new developments and ways to integrate LiFi into services, both for consumers and professionals.

As stated by JakajimaTV, the following topics that will be covered at the upcoming conference are as followed:

Market Development

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.

Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems (IPMS) Releases a Statement on The Use of Quantum Cryptography and LiFi For Secure Optical Data Communication

Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems (IPMS) Releases a Statement on The Use of Quantum Cryptography and LiFi For Secure Optical Data Communication

Fraunhofer IPMS


Today, the Fraunhofer IPMS released a press statement on their website about the "QuINSiDa" (Quantum-based Infrastructure Networks for Safety-Critical Wireless Data Communication) project. Several partners led by KEEQuant GmbH are developing a new approach to secure optical data transmission in wireless networks using light and quantum keys. The "QuINSiDa" project is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research BMBF with a sum of 2 million euros. The project, funded by the BMBF, has a planned duration from 01.09.2022 to 31.08.2025.

In quantum key distribution, quantum states in the form of light are prepared and exchanged between participants in the network when the keys are generated. When the quantum states are received, they are measured and post-processed to produce keys that are identical on both sides but secret to an attacker. The QuINSiDa project is the first to combine both technologies into a "QKD over LiFi" system. This makes it possible to carry QKD, which until now has typically been thought of more in a building-to-building scenario, all the way to the end user.

"The intention of the project is to demonstrate a quantum-based data communication network that wirelessly and flexibly connects multiple end users to a secure backbone infrastructure or which can be deployed separately as a secure campus network," says Imran Khan, Managing Director of KEEQuant GmbH. The idea is to use a flexible wireless data communication network in a point-to-multipoint scenario to simultaneously secure the individual communication channels based on quantum keys.

In contrast to radio-based approaches, the use of an optical communication network offers the advantage that every participant who registers in the optical wireless communication channel (LiFi channel) is also visible to the quantum channel. This ensures that secure key exchange can occur. Different wavelengths of light are used to separate the LiFi channel and the quantum channel. This separation can be optimised by the receiver by using appropriate optical filtering against interference.

The presented concept of a quantum-based infrastructure network for safety-critical wireless data communication is a completely new interdisciplinary approach that has not yet been presented in scientific publications or in current market solutions. The approach will be investigated by the project partners primarily with respect to security-critical applications, such as equipment for public utilities, including banks, hospitals, utilities, public services, telecommunications nodes, and government facilities. Here, special attention will be paid to the security of the overall system with simultaneous, interdisciplinary integration of network management software, classical cryptography (keyword: post-quantum cryptography), QKD technology and LiFi technology. At the same time, considering the background of technological sovereignty, the project is of social importance for Germany as a business location.

At the end of the project, a corresponding demonstration of the overall system is planned, which will bring the technologies together in a network and thus enable previously unexplored and unachieved use cases. Following the project, these will be exploited by the participating companies and incorporated into safety-critical applications. Due to the end-user focus, a broad application and thus a very large market potential and innovation potential can be identified. In addition, the drastic cost reduction in QKD that will arise in the next few years due to production in medium quantities will allow broader market penetration.

Furthermore, the interdisciplinary networking between the different communities (QKD, optics, telecommunication, security) leads to a seamless integration of the novel technologies into existing security technologies. This makes it easy for end users to adopt the technology into existing infrastructure.

LiFi Systems Reviews by LiFi Tech News


OLEDCOMM LIFIMAX KIT REVIEW - ONE YEAR IN

We reviewed the LiFiMax kit produced by the leading French LiFi company Oledcomm. We bought this LiFi kit system at the end of 2020. After over a year of use, we decided to write a review of this LiFi system. We looked briefly at the profile of Oledcomm, a brief history of the LiFiMax system, the Kit box contents, some testing and performance results of this LiFi system, the customer experience and our own verdict (the good and the bad points) of the LiFiMax kit.
