On the Effect of Multipath Reflections in Indoor Visible Light Communication Links: Channel Characterization and BER Analysis

Abstract: Owing to its several advantages over other wireless schemes, visible light communication (VLC) shall be at the forefront of optical wireless communication technology. However, due to multipath reflections and spatial distribution of light-emitting diode (LED) transmitters, there is an inherent delay spread in the VLC channels. We perform a comprehensive quantitative study on the effect of several practical factors like LED semi-angle, wall reflectivity, number of reflections, number of LED panels, room size, a… Show more

“…Due to the multipath propagation of visible light signals, the received optical signal in the indoor VLC link experiences time dispersion leading to ISI. The multipath channel model for indoor VLC systems is explained in great detail in [55], where the channel impulse response between the i th source S i and the receiver R is derived to be,…”
