Battery-free communication for a green planet

A method to communicate on mobile devices without batteries

Light bulbs have been recently explored to design Light Fidelity (LiFi) communication to battery-free tags, thus complementing Radiofrequency (RF) backscatter in the uplink. In this paper, we show that LiFi and RF backscatter are complementary and have unexplored interactions. Based on this premise, Sarmad Mir is presenting his latest paper “PassiveLiFi: Rethinking LiFi for Low-Power and Long Range RF Backscatter” at ACM Mobicom. We introduce a method to communicate on mobile devices without batteries.

This discovery has been published on the spanish national newspaper “El Mundo”. Find here the link to the online article:
