AbstractIn this paper, we propose a new adaptive layered asymmetrically-clipped optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (ALACO-OFDM) technique as a method to improve the spectral efficiency of optical system, especially visible light communication (VLC). Particle swarm optimisation (PSO)-based LACO-OFDM method is used for this purpose and the channel capacities are studied. Simulations using variable layers are carried out to validate the theoretical steps. The simulation results indicate that the ALACO-OFDM technique has significantly improve the spectral efficiency compared to previous techniques such as ACO-OFDM. Moreover, it is shown that channel capacities of different layers are significantly improved when electrical power is increased.

Abstract This paper introduces an optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based hyperchaotic key generation encryption approach that can improve confidentiality in visible light communication (VLC) networks. Using a hyperchaotic four-dimensional method, the bipolar real-valued OFDM signal can be used for constructing dynamic cypher keys modified at every frame over the communication time, resulting in a superior degree of protection against statistical and correlation attacks. In accordance with our findings, this approach decreases the ratio of peak-to-average power of the transmitted signal, and enhances the bit error rate efficiency and secrecy capacity of the OFDM-based VLC network, which improves confidentiality.
