Abstract

Wireless communication using germicidal light frequencies is a system and method for transmitting and receiving data using Far-UVC light. The system communicates data using Far-UVC light of a germicidal wavelength. Far UV is a specific spectrum of UV light. The ultraviolet spectrum is a band of electromagnetic radiation with higher energy, thus shorter wavelengths, than visible light. With respect to this system, the UV light wavelengths of interest are Far-UVC for solar-blind data-carrying frequencies in the THz range to provide a UVGI function.
