“…These low data rate systems make it possible to cover the applications that are included under the name of Internet of Things (IoT), in this case also known as LIoT (Light IoT) [ 67 ]. LIoT networks can work in conjunction with conventional networks such as NarrowBand©, IoT, LoRA©, or Sigfox© [ 68 ] to work in areas where there may be limitations to the use of RF networks, due to regulatory reasons, or to the presence of interferences or ill propagation (such as hospitals, underground mines or industrial areas) [ 69 , 70 ]. Furthermore, given that the visible optical signal (in the blue-green band) propagates better underwater than the RF systems and with emitters of smaller dimensions and consumption, it makes this solution more suitable for sensor networks or underwater point-to-point communications (UWOC).…”

In this paper, we explore the potential applications of Optical Wireless Communications in the tourism industry, considering both indoor and outdoor scenarios and different transmission speeds. They range from high-speed atmospheric outdoor links (Free-Space Optics (FSO)) to indoor systems based on high-speed lighting networks (known under the trade name LiFi©) or low-speed services support the Internet of Things networks, using visible light (VLC) or IR emitters, with receivers based on either on classical photodiodes or in image sensors, known as Optical Camera Communications. The avant-garde applications of this technology have been studied focusing on three possible use scenarios: the traveler himself, in what we have called TAN (Tourist Area Network); the tourist facility, which includes not only the hotel but also leisure areas (theme parks, museums, natural protected areas) or services (restaurants, shopping areas, etc.); and the entire destination, which can be both the city or the territory where the tourist is received, within the paradigm of the Smart Tourist Destination (STD). In addition to the classic services based on radio frequency and wired broadband networks, these technologies will make it possible to meet the tourist’s challenging needs, the establishment, and the destination. Besides, they cover the services imposed by the new marketing services related to location or context and feed the big data systems used to study tourist behavior.

<div>The continuous development of the Internet of Things (IoT) calls for innovative solutions and technologies to realize the IoT vision efficiently. One of the rising connectivity technologies that can potentially benefit the IoT deployment is Optical Wireless Communication (OWC) technology. In OWC, light beams from light sources are used to modulate information. The receiver demodulates the received light and processes the signal. The broad unlicensed spectrum of the OWC technology, along with its potential high bit-rate and increased physical link security, motivated researchers to consider OWC for IoT solutions. In this paper, we survey the existing literature related to using OWC technology in the IoT domain. We present the background and preliminaries of the IoT and OWC domains to understand how the OWC fits in the IoT architecture. Then we perform a comprehensive survey of literature related to the use of OWC technology in IoT applications. We highlight and summarize the major papers and experiments in the literature to provide researchers a jump-start to tap into the domain of OWC in IoT using the systemic and detailed survey presented in this paper.</div>

“…Los sistemas de comunicación a través de luz visible (VLC) utilizan leds como transmisores, por ser conocidos como dispositivos de bajo consumo de energía, larga vida útil y bajos costos. En el mercado los leds se clasifican con respecto a su fabricación, procesos y principios de trabajo en: Chips azules recubiertos de fósforo, chips con múltiples diodos orgánicos emisores de luz (OLED), micro-LED, LED de cavidad resonante y cuántica, Los LED de punto (QLED) y los LED de chip azul con revestimiento de fósforo (PCLED) que están comercialmente muy extendidos para la iluminación debido a su bajo costo (Turan, 2019); esto con el fin de referenciar el universo comercial de dispositivos led, del cual se hará uso para la escogencia del LED apropiado en el desarrollo de esta investigación.…”

“…Los receptores VLC se clasifican con respecto a sus tecnologías y comunicación óptica en fotodetectores, cámaras, LED, tubos fotomultiplicadores y células solares, como se observa en la figura 5. Siendo los fotodetectores (APD) los tipos de receptores más comunes de los sistemas VLC, encargándose de convertir señales ópticas moduladas en corriente eléctrica para los circuitos receptores (Turan, 2019).…”

La presente investigación centra su estudio en el sistema de comunicaciones inalámbricas Li-Fi, el cual centra su idea de funcionamiento en la transmisión de datos a través del parpadeo de una luz LED; el objetivo de esta investigación es el de conseguir operar un bus industrial dentro de la región de la luz visible y no dentro del espectro electromagnético utilizado por Wi Fi, para evitar la saturación del espectro de comunicación actual, alcanzando velocidades iguales o mayores a las utilizadas por la tecnología Wi Fi, con mejoras en el consumo energético y la inmunidad a las interferencias electromagnéticas.Por tal razón, esta investigación busca determinar el posible impacto de la integración del estándar industrial RS 485 con la tecnología Li-Fi, en la operatividad de un sistema ciber físico, al considerar la latencia, la capacidad, la fiabilidad y el consumo energético como parámetros de rendimiento.
