Abstract

Li-Fi is the new technology to provide wireless internet connections. Li-Fi stands for Light-Fidelity.Li-Fi technology
was coined by German physicist Harald Haas. Li-Fi uses LED i.e. Light Emitting Diode for the transmission of data. Li-Fi is
useful in many areas such as hospitals, aircraft cabins and the nuclear power plan. Li-Fi technology provides better capacity,
efficiency and availability than existing technology i.e. Wi-Fi. This paper focuses on analyze the performance of Li-Fi
technology with Wi-Fi technology.
