Abstract
Provided are techniques for dynamic LIFI extenders routing. One or more geographic locations of a physical region are identified based on historical crowd density, historical network traffic, current crowd density, and current network traffic. For each of the one or more geographic locations and a plurality of mobile bots, a mobile bot of the plurality of mobile bots is sent to that geographic location at a specified time, where the mobile bot provides a dynamic Light Fidelity (LIFI) extender router that acts as a network access point, and users at that geographic location are associated with the mobile bot, where each of the users has a LIFI enabled mobile device that communicates with a network of devices by sending data to the dynamic LIFI extender router via LIFI.
