Systems and methods for enabling high-speed wireless file transfer
Abstract:
Given the potential high data rate and privacy of Optical Wireless Communication, Li-Fi turns out to be an attractive technology for enabling high-speed wireless data transfer between remote devices. This invention is directed to various methods, systems and apparatus for enabling high-speed file transfer via a high-speed Li-Fi link (200) between a user-held apparatus (300) and a remote device (400). Upon a trigger command received by the user-held apparatus (300), a trigger signal is sent to the remote device (400) via another communication link (500) having a wide beam width. The remote device (400) provides a human perceivable indication of a dedicated reception area after receiving the trigger signal to assist a user to adjust the user-held apparatus (300) for an alignment needed to enable the high-speed Li-Fi link (200). The high-speed file transfer starts after the alignment status is determined allow for file transfer, or a start-to-send command is received by the user-held apparatus (300).
