The use of light as a means to transmit data has been coined Li-Fi (Light β Fidelity). The high-speed communication technology is similar to Wi-Fi but is faster, allowing you to send and receive more data in less time.

ο The use of light as a means to transmit data has been coined Li-Fi (Light β
Fidelity). The high-speed communication technology is similar to Wi-Fi but is faster,
allowing you to send and receive more data in less time.
ο Light Fidelity (Li-Fi) is a high speed, wireless communication using visible light. It falls
under the category of optical wireless communications. Data transmission takes
place through Light Emitting Diode (LED) bulbs whose intensity varies. Based
on this variation, communication occurs digitally. This technology would have vast
applications where the use of Wi-Fi is limited or banned.
ο The proposed project consists of three major parts, namely:
i. The transmitting device(PC),
ii. The Li-Fi trans receiver unit and
iii. The receiving device(PC)
4. PROBLEM STATEMENT
4
This project circumvents the main problems mitigating and limiting effective
data transmission (i.e. capacity, efficiency, availability, and security) when
using the radio spectrum. Therefore, it would reduce the over β reliance on
Wireless β Fidelity (Wi-Fi) for data transmission.
5. AIM & OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
5
ο To design the circuit diagram for the Transmitter and the Receiver in the system.
ο To package the assembled components into a Li-Fi text transmission system.
ο To test and analyze the Li-Fi text transmission system to ensure it meets the design
details.
The objectives of the project are as follows:
The aim of this project is to design and construct a data transmission system (made up
of the receiver and the transmitter) that transmits text data effectively using Li-Fi
technology.

6. SCOPE OF THE PROJECT

The proposed project would only be able to transmit text data using
Li-Fi technology but, the receiver (PC) would not be able to
transmit the text data back to the transmitter.

HARDWARE DESIGN
The hardware design section consists of the physical parts of the
project which are made up of the following circuit units;
ο The Arduino Uno Board
ο Photodiode
ο Wavelength specific LED
ο Resistors
ο A transistor (in the transmitter circuit) and
ο Low power Operational Amplifiers (in the receiver circuit)
11. METHODOLOGY CONTβD

In the receiverβs circuit:
The voltage gain of the non- inverting amplifier (LM358N) having its output
at Pin 1 is calculated as:
π¨ π½ = 1 + πΉ π/πΉ π (1)
Since from the data sheet, the output signal from the photodiode is about
1.4V maximum and we desired to have an output voltage that would be
easily detected as a 1 signal when bit β1β is sent, the amplifier is designed to
have a dc voltage gain of 3.
Setting the feedback resistor, π 2, to be 8.2 kβ¦; using equation 1, π 1 is
calculated to be :
π 1 = π 2 / (π΄ π β 1)
= 8.2 kβ¦ / (3 β 1)
= 4.1 kβ¦
πΉ π β 4.7 kβ¦ ( next closest standard resistor value)
