Market Definition
Currently, the most trending communication technology adopted by the masses is WiFi, of which the user base is rapidly expanding every year. As a result, it has instigated the need for developing a more robust solution to cater to user requirements.
Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) is the latest wireless communication technology that holds immense potential to deliver data speeds faster than what presently is available. It belongs to VLC (Visible Light Communication) system and thus comprises a photo-detector to receive light and a signal processing element that converts the data into streams. It uses visible light waves for high-speed 2D (bi-directional) data transmission, is believed to be more secure & efficient than current wireless technologies, and offers 100 times more range than WiFi.
Market Insights
The Global Li-Fi Market is expected to register more than 60% CAGR during the forecast period, i.e., 2022-27. Presently, the Li-Fi technology is in the early stage but gaining significant attention worldwide. The mounting demand for high-speed & secured data transmission across various industries would primarily drive the Li-Fi market globally in the future.
Besides, the projected crunch of RF spectrum, various ongoing & upcoming smart city projects promoted by governments of several countries worldwide, and the mounting adoption of advanced technologies like cloud computing, big data, etc., across several industries would further boost the global market through 2027.
