Identification (ID) systems utilizing visible light are an interesting topic, and have been attracting the growing attention of researchers recently. However, LED transmitters with a unique ID illuminate a limited coverage area, therefore, limiting the communication coverage. In order to extend the communication coverage, we proposed wireless mesh networks (WMNs) for relaying the information. Routing operations in WMNs might be challenging due to various factors. In this paper we analyze the link error probability and optical power loss. Based on our proposed network topology, we further found an effective scheme, multi-stage parallel interference cancellation (PIC), to alleviate the negative impacts due to interference which comes from multi-user data transmission.
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.
