摘要
Data offloading efficiency in a cellular/light fidelity network is investigated. This offloading efficiency is a measure of the ratio of traffic carried by light fidelity (LiFi) network to total traffic carried by both LiFi and cellular networks. The effect of LiFi-signal blocking and channel characteristics are considered. Different LiFi offloading timing cases are discussed. Simulation is performed in order to explore the performance of opportunistic cellular/LiFi traffic offloading scenario. Simulation results reveal that LiFi-signal blocking can reduce the offloading efficiency by more than 30%.
