Performance Analysis of Integration of Wireless Sensor Network with Li-Fi Wireless Communication Technology

Ensuring data security in WSNs (Wireless sensor networks) has been a persistent issue. The absence of a reliable mechanism to secure data poses a serious threat to the integrity of information. Also, the quality of services provided by WSNs is poor. Hence, there exists a need for a new technological paradigm that can address these shortcomings of WSNs. In this regard, Li-Fi technology emerges as a highly relevant wireless communication technology. This research paper focuses on the integration of Li-Fi with WSNs and analyses its performance using the software: Opti System, used for analyzing the communication system. In this paper, three models: the LOS model, the single LED non-LOS model, and the double LED non-LOS models have been considered and the LOS model has been found best with an eye height of 1.050 due to which it leads to minimum distortion and noise as compared to the other two, which are non- LOS models.
