Secure Arduino-Based LiFi Communication for IoT Sensor Networks
Аннотация
Light Fidelity (LiFi) has turned into a promising substitute to the radio-frequency communication in Internet of Things (IoT) sensor networks providing a high spatial reuse, electromagnetic immunity, and natural spatial confinement. This paper provides the design, implementation, and performance analysis of a secure LiFi-based Arduino communication platform in low power internet sensor networks. The system proposed incorporates a simple LED transmitter and receiver based on a photodiode with the resource-friendliness of Arduino platforms. An integrated security model that integrates physical containment, frame authentication and light weight encryption is presented. To measure throughput, latency and reliability, analytical modeling, prototype configuration and simulationbased evaluation are implemented. Findings show that it is possible to use Arduino in the process of getting secure LiFi communication, which can support indoor IoT applications without much compromise on performance and increased confidentiality.
