Full form of lifi

What is the full form of Li-Fi?

 Answer : 

  • Light Fidelity 

What does Li-Fi mean?

Li-Fi is a wireless optical network technology. Li-Fi uses visible light from LED for data transmission. So in unlike infrared-based systems, visible light communication involves to transmitting data using light visible to the human eye. Li-Fi works by flickering light at a rapid-fire rate, invisible to the human eye. To connect to a Li-Fi network to Li-Fi network, a device must be equipped with the capability to recognize the LED light signals and use them to transfer data. A unique security aspect of visible light communication is that it works only when a device has a line of sight to the light transmitter. Light cannot penetrate walls as radio signals can, so drive of wireless internet signals would be far more difficult.

DFT example

Before we fine DFT first let we check it out the what is DFT.

 Find the DFT of the following finite equation sequence of length L.

x(n) = A for 0≤ n ≤   L-1
       = 0 otherwise

We have
  
           N-1
X(K) = ∑    x(n) . e –j2πkn/N
             n=0
           N-1
X(K) = ∑    A . e –j2πkn/N
            n=0
           N-1
X(K) = ∑    x(n) .( e –j2πk/N  ) n
          n=0
            
We have standard summation formula

Butterworth low pass filters

There are so many digital filters like FIR and IIR filter, here this article gives one more analog type batter-worth filter. To shown in figure typical characteristics of batter-worth low pass filter.

This type of response is called a butter-worth response because its main characteristics are that the pass-band maximally flat. It means there are no variations in the pass-band device.

Now the magnitude squared response of low pass butter-worth filters is given by,

  │H(Ω)2│  =   1   /  1 + (Ω/Ωc)2N

Where;

H(Ω) = Magnitude of analog low pass filter
N = Order of the filter
Ωc = Cut of frequency 

Silent features of low pass butter-worth filter :
  • Since the magnitude response is nearly constant at lower frequencies. That means passband and are maximally flat.
  • There are no ripples in the passband and also for stopband.
  • The maximum gain occurs at the value at Ω = 0 and it is │H(0)│= 1
  • The magnitude response is monotonically decreasing.
Application of Butter-worth filter :
  • Butter-worth filter can be used as radar such as in designing the display of radar target track.
  • In high quality, an audio application,s these are used.
  • These are also used in the digital filter for motion analysis.
  • This type of filter most commonly used in anti-aliasing filter in data converter applications

Relationship between DFT and Z transform

We already learn about what is DFT and what is Z transform, So now here this article gives the information about the relationship between DFT and Z transform to know more details about DFT as well as Z transform.

The Z transform of sequence x(n) is,

           ∞
X(Z) = ∑  x(n) . Z –n
           n=-∞

We know that at Z = e –jω

            ∞
X(Z) = ∑  x(n) . e –jωn
           n = -∞

It means that X(Z) is evaluated on the unit circle. 

Now suppose X(Z) is sampled at N equally spaced point on the unit circle, then we have 

ω = 2πK / N

Now if X(Z) is evaluated at Z =  e –jωk/n then by putting equation we get; 

            ∞
X(Z) = ∑  x(n) . e-j2πKn / N
           n = -∞

At Z = ej2πK/N

In the equation, if x(n) is a causal sequence and has N number of the sample then we can write an equation


            N-1
X(K) = ∑   x(n) . e-j2πKn / N
           n = 0

At Z = ej2πKn/N

X(K) = X(Z)  At Z = ej2πKn/N

DFT meaning

In the digital communication system, the DFT stands for Discrete Fourier transform, it is a finite duration frequency sequence which is obtained by sampling one period of Fourier transform. Sampling is done at 'N' equally spaced points, over the period extending from o to around range of 2π.

Mathematical equations :

The DFT of discrete sequence sequence is x(n) and  is denoted by X(k). It is given by,

            N-1
X(K) = ∑    x(n) . e –j2πkn/N
              n=0

Here k = 0,1,2,3.......N-1

Since this summation is taken for N point, it is called as N point of discrete Fourier transform called DFT.

We can obtain a discrete sequence x(n) from its DFT. It is called an inverse discrete Fourier transform. It is given by, 

                 N-1
X(n) =1/N ∑    x(k) . e –j2πkn/N
                    k=0

Here n = 0,1,2,3.......N-1

This is called as N point IDFT.

Thyristor chopper circuit

Actually, a chopper consists of a main power semiconductor types of device together with their turn on as well as turn off mechanisms. Here we have already learned about different types of chopper circuit like type A, type B, type C, type E etc. Now let us check it out the information about thyristor chopper circuit to know more details about chopper circuitry design.

In chopper definition, the low power chopper circuit; power transistors and also a GTOs terms. are being used widely. In high power level, however thyristor definition are in most commonly use. So here we have to learn the object of this section is to study the thyristor chopper circuit along with their commutation circuitry.

Forced commutation: 

 In the method of forced commutation called, the external elements L and C which do not carry the load current continuously, are used to turn off a conducting Thyristor. Forced commutation can be achieved in the following ways :

1. Voltage commutation : 
  • In this scheme, a conducting thyristor is commutated by the application of a pulse of a large reverse type of voltage. This reverse voltage is applied by switching a previously charged capacitor of the circuit device. 
  • The sudden application of the reverse voltage across the conducting Thyristor reduces the anode to zero rapidly.
  • Then the presence of a reverse voltage across the SCR stands aids in the completion of its turn off process.
2. Current commutation :
  • In this scheme, an external pulse of current greater than the load current is passed in the reversed direction through the conducting SCR. When the current pulse attains a value equal to the load current, net pulse current through thyristor becomes zero and the device turn off. So the current pulse is usually generated by an initially charged capacitor.
  • An important feature of current commutation is the connection of a diode in anti-parallel with the main thyrostor so that voltage drop across the diode reverse biases the main SCR. Since this voltage drop is of the order of is 1 volt only, the commutation time in current commutation is more as compared to that in voltage commutation.
  • In both voltage and current commutation schemes, commutation is initiated by gating an auxiliary SCR called thyristor.
Load commutation : 

 In load commutation, a conducting thyristor is turned off when load current flowing through a thyristor either :

1. It becomes to zero due to the nature of load circuit parameters 
2.Transferred to another device from the conducting thyrostor

Types of chopper circuits

before we learn about different types of chopper circuit first let we check it out what is a chopper and how it used in power electronics application.

 Chopper definition :

A chopper device is one type of electronic circuit used to refer to numerous types of electronic switching devices and used in power control and signals applications. 

 In power electronics, the much industrial application requires power from dc voltage sources. Several of these types of applications, however, perform better in case these are fed variable dc voltage source. 

In power electronic the conversion from fixed dc voltage to an adjustable dc type of output voltage, through the use of semiconductor devices, can be carried out by the two types of dc to dc converters  are as listed below :
  1. AC link chopper
  2. DC chopper
Here this article gives information about the different types of chopper circuit, to how to convert the dc output voltage.

1. AC link chopper 

shows in the circuit diagram of an ac link chopper to, dc are first converted to ac by an inverter. AC is then stepped down by a transformer which is then converted back to dc by a diode rectifier, As the conversion is in two stages, dc to ac to dc. So Ac link chopper is costly, bulky, and less efficient.


2. DC chopper 

To show in the figure here DC  chopper is a static device that converts fixed dc input voltage to a variable dc output voltage directly.

A chopper may be thought of as dc equivalent of an ac transformer so that it can behave like is an identical manner. As a state that the chopper involves that one stage conversion, these are more efficient for a circuit, so is the one of the most useful compared to AC link chopper.

Chopper is now being all over for rapid transits systems. Chopper systems offer too much fast response, smooth control, high efficiency, and also regeneration.

The power semiconductor devices are used for a chopper circuit can be force commutative thyristor, and also power BJT full form, IGBT full form, power MOSFET full form. As we stated above, a chopper is dc equivalent to an ac transformer having continuously variable turn ratio. 

As an alike transformer, a chopper can be used to step up or step down for the fixed dc input voltage. As a step-down dc chopper are more common,  then the term dc chopper would mean a step-down dc chopper.
