Advantages of LiFi ASK FSK PSK
Following are the advantages of LiFi:

The data transfer rate for internet application is higher.
1.Network WiFi
It provides high amount of security as data communication
2.IOt Advantages
is line of sight (LOS). Moreover li signal covers low region
does not pass through the walls. This will avoid unwanted
access of li signal by unauthorized persons.
The li devices consume low power for operation and
hence used in IoT applications.
It uses optical spectrum and hence avoids already crowded
RF spectrum.
As it operates on optical bands which are not harmful like
RF spectrum. Hence there is no health concerns in LiFi based
system.
There is great amount of energy reduction in lighting
industry which uses LiFi based devices.
It is easy to install.

Disadvantages of LiFi
Following are the disadvantages of LiFi:
Internet can be used only where light of source device is
available. Moreover light can not penetrate from walls and it
works only in line of sight path. This limits access of internet
whereever one requires. Moreover its range is limited.
It can not be used in outdoor environment like RF signal.
This is because of interference caused by sunlight and other
optical sources present nearby. Moreover it can be
intercepted by the unwanted people if used outdoors.
Though the installation is simple, Li system requires
whole new infrastructure. This will add cost to the
companies/people wanting to take LiFi Internet service.
Though it draws low power, in order to avail li internet
services, lights need to be kept ON throughout day and night.
As internet is need of the hour, this will waste energy more
than any other internet system.
One can not watch games and videos on internet in the
dark during night before sleeping on the bed.
