Abstract

LiFi is expected to garner a market share of US $14.91 Billion by 2022. Our research is an endeavor to finding out whether the dichotomy of production and distribution of LiFi systems would bring positive change in the future of this nascent technology. To undertake it, we analyze the standardization efforts, the consumer market acceptance and the trends in the production of the components of LiFi. Partly, because the technology forwards the Green Communication Goal, and eradicates the Radio Frequency Bottleneck.
