Nadabet Gets Internet Powered By LiFi Technology From Ahmedabad-Based NAV Wireless Technologies Pvt Ltd
From a recent article written by The Indian Express, Ahmedabad-based NAV Wireless Technologies Pvt Ltd has been providing LiFi technology and improving the internet broadband needs of Border Security Force (BSF) and tourists at Nadabet, which is the farthest and one of the most secluded points on the India-Pakistan border in Gujarat, since the last nine months.
Hardik Soni, a co-founder of NAV Wireless Technologies Pvt Ltd, stated the following:
“Nadabet is located on the border and it is connected by a small road to Suigam (in Banaskantha district) located 30 kilometres away. The saline ecosystem does not allow the laying of underground or overhead optic fibre cables. Radio frequencies cannot be used as it is near Pakistan. So state government was facing an issue in providing Internet connectivity to Nadabet which is now being developed as a tourist location,”
“Since last nine months, internet provided by this technology is being used by soldiers of BSF and tourists alike. Around 15,000 people visit Nadabet every month and they are able to use the high-speed internet. This is the first big project taken up by the state and central governments to deploy LiFi technology at a spot having difficult terrain and security concerns,”
“We have connected the optic fibre cable in Suigam to our LiFi devices in Suigam and Nadabet to provide high bandwidth Internet. Multiple users and 100 MBPS (megabits per second) will not be sufficient. So this technology provides speeds in gigabytes,” the official said adding that the telecom infrastructure of BSNL and Gujarat Informatics Ltd has also been used to provide this service.
“We are not the telecom or internet service provider. We only handle the technology and the equipment,” he added.

Li-Fi Conference 2022
The next Li-Fi Conference is coming up on the 28th of June 2022 between 10 am and 4.30 pm CET.
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.
At this conference professionals from all over the globe will gather together in order to share applications, ideas, new developments and ways to integrate Li-Fi in services, both for consumers and professionals.
This conference will be held Live and Online. The venue will be the High Tech Campus 1, The Strip 5656 AE Eindhoven The Netherlands.

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.
