Communicate to illuminate: State-of-the-art and research challenges for visible light communications

Abstract: In the near future, the available radio-frequency (RF) bandwidth will not be sufficient to meet the ever increasing demand for wireless access. Visible light communication (VLC) is an alternative method to reduce the burden of RF-based communication, especially in indoor communications. 70% of the communication is indoors, and light emitting diode (LED) arrays are spreading for illumination purposes thanks to their low energy and higher lifetime. VLC can be realized as a secondary application in LED arrays tha… Show more

“…It can be used for communication due its wide range, and is environmentally friendly [1][2][3]. VLC was introduced for ITS interaction to complement and commute the present radio frequency (RF) communication by solving the saturation problem in its band, considering each light source as a free access point [4].…”

“…In the meantime, the light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that have been widely deployed in traffic lights can be used as VLC transmitters because they are a possible energy-saving light source, with long life, small size, and low power consumption. Therefore, LEDs are used on different occasions, such as for traffic lights and street lighting that can be used for communication, so that large-scale power can be employed effectively and that could not be used for radio or infrared contact [4][5][6].…”

“…Teknologi ini memanfaatkan cahaya tampak dalam mentransmisikan datanya. Teknologi VLC memiliki banyak keunggulan dibandingkan komunikasi Radio Frequency (RF) diantaranya adalah aman dari interferensi gelombang elektromagnetika, lebih aman (secure) karena cahaya tidak dapat menembus penghalang, memiliki efisiensi energi yang tinggi dan biaya implementasi yang murah [1]- [5].…”
