Performance study of visible light communication through non-orthogonal multiple access (noma) – LI-FI

Abstract

Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) is a new wireless communication technology that is comparable to Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi). However, Li-Fi is supposed to be better than Wi-Fi, and this has been theoretically verified. Li-Fi is also thought to make a significant contribution to wireless networks. The practical application of Li-Fi will be discussed in this study. In this paper we chose NOMA because of its ability and efficiency in simultaneously transporting data, as well as its application in 5G cellular networks. VLC stands for visible light communication, as the name implies. In this section, we will investigate how the data transporting capabilities of Li-Fi make use of the visible light emitted by light emitting diodes (LEDs). In this paper, the effectiveness of a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) protocol used in a downlink visible light communication (VLC) system is evaluated for two distinct situations. On a two-user paired NOMA, we create an analytical expression of the system coverage probability for QoS provisioning and show that optimum power allocation coefficients do exist. Additionally, we establish the existence of optimal power allocation coefficients. Last but not least, the numerical and analytical results illustrated in our work show that the VLC single-cell system throughput obtained with our technique is better than that obtained with the earlier strategy. Additionally, it is shown that the suggested alternative lower bound fits the original NOMA-VLC GRPA objective asymptotically using indoor VLC channels.
