ARLA/CLUSTER: Acesso à Internet sem fio via lâmpadas de Led´s

[João Costa > CT1FBF]

Wireless Internet access via light bulbs

Xinhua News reports that *Professor Chi Nan* of Shanghai's Fudan University
has used a LED bulb to provide a high speed internet connection

She explained that by using Li-Fi technology a light bulb with embedded
microchips can produce data rates as fast as 150 Mbps, much higher than the
average broadband connection in China.

"Wherever there is an LED light bulb, there is an Internet signal," said
Chi. "Turn off the light and there is no signal."

The term Li-Fi was coined by Harald Haas from the University of Edinburgh
in the UK and refers to a type of visible light communication technology
that delivers a networked, mobile, high-speed communication solution in a
similar manner as WiFi.

The problem with Li-Fi technology is getting the Internet to the bulb. It
is understood all current Li-Fi systems make use of polluting Power Line
Telecommunications (PLT) which can render the HF radio spectrum unusable.
