Layout and optimization of LED light source for indoor visible light communication

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel polygonal layout based on rectangular plane stereo space. The illumination and signal-to-noise ratio of polygonal layout and circular layout is simulated in a 5 m × 4 m × 3 m room; The simulation results show that: compared with the illuminance uniformity of the circular layout of 0.67, the illuminance uniformity of the polygonal layout reaches 0.81, which is improved by 20.90%. The position and power of the polygonal layout are further optimized respectively by particle swarm optimization (PSO), and the illuminance uniformity and signal-to-noise ratio quality factors (Q) of the polygonal layout can be increased from 0.81 and 19.31 to 0.88 and 37.38 after optimization, respectively. The illuminance uniformity increased by 8.64%, and the Q increased by 93.58%. The experimental system of polygonal layout optimized by PSO is built, by comparing the simulation and experimental results, the average illuminance error of the simulation and experiment is 10.58%, the illuminance uniformity error is 5.68%, and the illuminance distribution trend is consistent.

Design of the Light Source Layout Optimization Strategy Based on Region Partition and Pre-Bias Compensation for Indoor Visible Light Communication Systems

“…Wang and Yu proposed a circular layout of 16 LEDs, and introduced a quality factor Q to reduce the fluctuation in the SNR [9]. Pei and Jing proposed a new polygon layout method in three-dimensional space, which further optimizes the circular layout [10]. Several researchers have incorporated optimization algorithms into the optimization procedure of light source layout.…”
