In this study, we present a novel Visible Light Positioning (VLP) method to reduce the localization error in an indoor environment. Machine Learning (ML) methods including Decision Tree (DT), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Neural Networks (NNs) are used in combination with the LED Received Signal Strength (RSS) and the angle of a steerable laser. Zemax optics studio simulator is used to build a real indoor scene. Orange data mining software is utilized to apply ML techniques. Our numerical findings show that the suggested system outperforms the other RSS Visible Light Communication (VLC)-based models by reducing the localization error by more than 90% in some areas.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
