Abstract Visible Light Communications (VLC) is the type of communication, which processes high-speed data transmission using the visible Light Emitting Diodes (LED). The VLC acts as an important supplementary that is used to define the hotspots for heterogeneous networks and plays an important role for 5G networks in wireless communications. However, performance of visible light systems is affected by various noises and Allan variance is used to analyze such noises in 5G networks. The Massive Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output (M-MIMO) technique is used for noise modeling which utilizes the mitigation circuit to find whether the noise is white noise, shot noise, random walk noises or typical noises. The existing Kalman Filter approach failed to attain the required bandwidth and higher spectral efficiency. Therefore, to achieve high data rates, the spectral efficient technologies such as Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiplexing (SCFDM) is performed in the research. The Allan Variance is utilized for analyzing the time-series that extracts the noise features of the data and the major noise is verified and considered by the M-MIMO technique. The present research uses the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) which determines the observation models and the state transition that does not need linear functions to define the states. The proposed SCFDM was constructed based on the VLC for 5G networks that analyzes in terms of Bit Error Rate (BER) and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). The proposed SCFDM obtains a high SNR of 14% for the channels with white LED option when compared to the existing methods.

In this paper, we investigate the performance of a vehicular visible light communications (VVLC) link with a non-collimated and incoherent light source (a light-emitting diode) as the transmitter (Tx), and two different optical receiver (Rx) types (a camera and photodiode (PD)) under atmospheric turbulence (AT) conditions with aperture averaging (AA). First, we present simulation results indicating performance improvements in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) under AT with AA with increasing size of the optical concentrator. Experimental investigations demonstrate the potency of AA in mitigating the induced signal fading due to the weak to moderate AT regimes in a VVLC system. The experimental results obtained with AA show that the link’s performance was stable in terms of the average SNR and the peak SNR for the PD and camera-based Rx links, respectively with <1 dB SNR penalty for both Rxs, as the strength of AT increases compared with the link with no AT.

With the rapid development of light-emitting diode, visible light communication (VLC) has become a candidate technology for the next generation of high-speed indoor wireless communication. In this paper, we investigate the performance of the 32-quadrature amplitude modulation (32-QAM) constellation shaping schemes for the first time, where two special circular constellations, named Circular (4, 11, 17) and Circular (1, 5, 11, 15), and a triangular constellation are proposed based on the Shannon’s criterion. Theoretical analysis indicates that the triangular constellation scheme has the largest minimum Euclidian distance while the Circular (4, 11, 17) scheme achieves the lowest peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). Experimental results show that the bit error rate performance is finally decided by the value of PAPR in the VLC system due to the serious nonlinearity of the LED, where the Circular (4, 11, 17) scheme always performs best under the 7% preforward error correction threshold of 3.8 × 10−3 with 62.5Mb/s transmission data rate and 1-meter transmission distance.

Visible Light Communications

Visible Light Communication (VLC) is a short-range optical wireless communication technology that has been gaining attention due to its potential to offload heavy data traffic from the congested radio wireless spectrum. At the same time, wireless communications are becoming crucial to smart manufacturing within the scope of Industry 4.0. Industry 4.0 is a developing trend of high-speed data exchange in automation for manufacturing technologies and is referred to as the fourth industrial revolution. This trend requires fast, reliable, low-latency, and cost-effective data transmissions with fast synchronizations to ensure smooth operations for various processes. VLC is capable of providing reliable, low-latency, and secure connections that do not penetrate walls and is immune to electromagnetic interference. As such, this paper aims to show the potential of VLC for industrial wireless applications by examining the latest research work in VLC systems. This work also highlights and classifies challenges that might arise with the applicability of VLC and visible light positioning (VLP) systems in these settings. Given the previous work performed in these areas, and the major ongoing experimental projects looking into the use of VLC systems for industrial applications, the use of VLC and VLP systems for industrial applications shows promising potential.

This design is based on Visible Light Communication Technology, to achieve outdoor visible light communications and image recognition etc. through traffic lights. It will play a role on promoting the utilization of traffic lights. The system uses a LED dot matrix to imitate the traffic light, loading QR Code information on the LED dot matrix and then transporting it in a very high-speed flashing. In receiving terminal, first, webcam OV7670 collects information which from the LED dot matrix, then conveys the picture to FPGA, which is the processor. FPGA will handle the picture by gray scale processing, medium filtering and binary processing at last. Thus, the picture from the LED dot matrix will change to ‘0’ and ‘1’ in binary area. Secondly, as there’s a relationship between LED dot matrix and webcam pixels, we can count how many pixels represent one LED. Finally, we can decode the QR Code based on its own style, and display the final result on the TFT screen.
