Evolution of Hybrid LiFi-WiFi Networks: A Survey.

Given the growing number of devices and their need for internet access, researchers are focusing on integrating various network technologies. Concerning indoor wireless services, a promising approach in this regard is to combine light fidelity (LiFi) and wireless fidelity (WiFi) technologies into a hybrid LiFi and WiFi network (HLWNet). Such a network benefits from LiFi's distinct capability for high-speed data transmission and from the wide radio coverage offered by WiFi technologies.
