Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) using Visible Light Communication (VLC) channels can be seen as an economically viable option to replace the existing modes of vehicular communications in the near future. In this paper, we have analyzed the performance of VLC based V2X communication under various environmental deterrents viz. Light Fog, Dense Fog, Light Smoke and Dense Smoke using a proof-of-concept testbed. A series of experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of environmental deterrents over VLC based Lineof-Sight as well as non-Line-of Sight V2X transmission with respect to distance and angular variations. On-Off-keying (OOK) modulation has been selected as the modulation scheme, as defined in VLC standard (IEEE 802.15.7) for the transmission of information bits between a transmitter LED and a photodiode receiver. The experimental results show the feasibility of VLC-based V2X systems with reliable data transmission under different environmental deterrents with a fairly good signal-tonoise ratio (SNR), even under dense-fog and smoke conditions where the attenuation in average optical power at the receiver, is quite high.

Intelligent reflective surface (IRS), a software-controlled metasurface, is now a proven and promising candidate technology to achieve superior and reliable data transmission for the next-generation mobile communication systems. This letter investigates the performance of an IRS-assisted orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) wireless system in the presence of a non-ideal oscillator and amplifier. The analytical framework comprises of deriving the closed-form expressions for the outage probability, spectral efficiency, energy efficiency, and diversity order. The result shows that the phase noise and distortion significantly limit the performance gain of an IRS-assisted OFDM wireless communication system.
