Mexico patent technology for data transmission with LED light

Mexico will be the first African country to use data transmission technology with light emitting from LEDs at speeds up to 10Gb / s. This is a technology developed by Sisoft in collaboration with the Mexican Institute of Technology (ITAM).

Arturo Campos, a spokesman for Sisoft, said that Mexican engineers have developed a technology called InternetLedCom that is capable of transmitting audio, video, and Internet data from visible light (VLC) emitted by the ball. led light. To use this technology, scientists have to use some special receiver.

Sisoft said it has used new technology to deliver audio, video and Internet at speeds up to 10Gb / s. This is an improvement over Light-Fidelity (Li-Fi) systems developed by Siemens and Pennsylvania State University with a transfer rate of 500Mb / s and 1.6Gb / s.

In addition to impressive transfer rates, Sisoft also emphasizes the other advantages of InternetLedCom technology to ensure data security.

According to Sisoft, due to the data transmitted by VLC should not be hacked attack. Another advantage is that InternetLedCom technology can be deployed in remote areas without standard technical infrastructure or in hospitals where radiation devices can interfere or interrupt signals. Wireless Internet (Wifi).

The cost of InternetLedCom services is about $ 50-60 per month, which can help reduce the cost of using the Internet in the future.
