    Abstract :

    Light fidelity or Li-Fi technology is first proposed by Harald Hass (a German Scientist).Li-Fi is one of the data transmission technique in which radiance or luminance is used a medium for communication between devices. With the help of an LED bulb transmission of data is done by using the fact that variation in its intensity can’t match with human persistence of vision. Nowadays the Wi-Fi is the more popular wireless technology that covers within buildings, but we can’t ignore the point that Li-Fi is ideal for high speed wireless data transmission though in a meagre area. Speciality in Li-Fi is such that it provides higher bandwidth, efficiency, availability and security than Wi-Fi and has already achieved high speed in the lab. As we know the speed of light is much faster hence we can achieve high speed of data transmission in compared with the one system (Wi-Fi) exists nowadays. This paper aims to traverse this astounding technology and also by comparing the attributes of wireless communication (Wi-Fi) with the light communication (Li-Fi).
