Improved data transmission using Li-Fi technology for home automation application

摘要

In recent times, home automation is preferred to be an important addenda in modern homes for several purposes like safety, security etc. The home automation is a local network management for smaller enterprises and home, which are interconnected with tons of devices via wireless technologies. The major operation of the home automation application involves acquisition or rapid collection of data from the input devices. With increasing data transmission from the devices via local wireless network management, the overhead of data communication increases. Such conditions gets even worse in the low speed network. In order to ensure increased communication speed with low latency, the proposed method uses Li-Fi communication technology to transfer the data between the local wireless network management systems in home automation system. The proposed study develops a local Li-Fi network management framework with Li-Fi technology and its adaptability over the home automation network. The study hence improves operating speed of the network such that it achieves packet load balancing, energy efficiency and low latency.
