Data Transfer With Li-Fi Using Raspberry Pi

This document summarizes a project using a Raspberry Pi to transfer data via Li-Fi. It introduces Li-Fi as an alternative to Wi-Fi that uses LED lights to transmit data. The motivation is to overcome issues with Wi-Fi like security, speed and bandwidth limitations. The problem is to create a functioning prototype using a Raspberry Pi to modulate data and transmit it via an LED to another Raspberry Pi that can receive, demodulate and decode the data. Key components used include Raspberry Pi, LED, solar panel and amplifier. The document outlines the transmission process which includes encoding the data, transmitting it via UDP protocol, and the receiver process to decode the data and reconstruct files like images.

Motivation
• Lag of data transfer speed
• Speech of Harald Haas at Ted Talk
• Security
•Need of data transfer in different mediums such as
I. Water
II. Industries ( Where RF can’t be used)
Problem Statement
•Producing a functioning prototype that utilizes VLC technology to send information to a related
device across free space.
•This includes
I. Processing data, Modulating data and encoding
II. Receiving, Amplifying, Demodulating and decoding
About Li-fi
•Founder- Harald Hass
•Light- Fidelity
•Li-Fi is a wireless optical networking technology that uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for data
transmission.
Introduction
Short notes on wi-fi, it’s advantageous and disadvantages
Disadvantageous include:
• Security, low and inconsistent speed
• Spectrum bandwidth and its availability and capacity
• Safety in terms of radiation and data transfer
Advantageous over wi-fi

Image
1. Use python to read image
2. Convert to base64 data
3. Turn every character to binary(8bit/character)
4. Regroup to 540bits/packet
5. Regroup to 15bits/packet
6. To receiver side
Receiver
1. Receive the binary data
2. Check the size
3. Convert back to characters
4. Convert back to base64 and save as image.
