Visible Light Communication (VLC) has emerged as an attractive alternative to radio frequency (RF) communication, due to cost-effectiveness and being license free. It has also proved its applicability in automotive applications, as an alternative and/or a complement to the traditional RF-based communications. We investigate the suitability of VLC in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and discuss its advantages in terms of safety enhancement and improved efficiency of the ITS. In this thesis, a VLC-based Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) system in practical environments, considering both Line-of-Sight (LOS) and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) paths are presented. The thesis investigates robust communication between a Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) based VLC emitter and Photodiodes (PDs) based VLC receiver. For consideration of a V2V communication system, we consider transmitter on vehicle headlights and receivers on taillight making 2 _ 2 Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) communication link. A closed-form expression of the Channel Impulse Response (CIR) is derived and the effect of various channel parameters is analyzed. Optical-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (O-OFDM) with adaptive modulation schemes is proposed for system improvement. Its performance is evaluated in terms of Inter Symbol Interference (ISI) mitigation, and data rate improvement. Moreover, the effect of sunlight on the V2V-VLC Two denoising schemes are proposed and evaluated as a solution to combat the effect of the solar irradiance on the VLC signal. Firstly, we use a differential receiver for denoising purposes followed by k-Nearest Neighbour (kNN) based adaptive _ltering algorithm, which is a supervised Machine Learning (MLE) technique. The shadowing effect is also studied. Moreover, an application of VLC in Foglet based ITS is described. The simulation validation of the VLC-based V2V system is performed under various environmental conditions and scenarios. Obtained results emphasize the suitability of VLC technology for automobile applications,.

Visible light communication technology is a emerging wireless and optical communication technology developed after invention and application of white LED.In this paper, we have a research based on indoor visible light communication system of lighting white LED,discuss of the visible light communication channel characteristics,detailedly analysis of the indoor visible light communication link. This paper focuses on the modulation and demodulation method applied to visible light communication. In the past visible light communication is mainly used off keying modulation,however, the data transfer speed is limited due to the influence of ISI .This paper presents a solution based on OFDM modulation and demodulation, to reduce the impact brought from inter-symbol string under high data transfer speed.Based on data analysis and computer simulation,the program presented in this paper can be used as indoor lighting and high-speed data transmission.Finally, give scheme to achieve visible light communication modulation and demodulation,provide a theoretical basis for further experiments.

In this paper, a stacked autoencoder network is utilised to realise the signal constellation and transceivers adapted to the dimmable indoor visible light communication system in order to acquire lower symbol error probability. Its decoder parts function as denoising and the equaliser for the proposed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) visible light communication system which can compensate the non-linear transfer function and the crosstalk between multiple LED data streams. The bit error rate performance as well as the influence of LED spatial intervals on root mean square delay spread, impulse response and bit rate have been analysed considering multipath reflections of the indoor MIMO-VLC system. The numerical results show that the a stacked autoencoder technique performs better in bit error rate reduction compared with state-of-art the zero forcing and minimum mean squared error algorithm. The experiment also shows, when the semi-angle at half power of LEDs and the field of view of Photodetectors become small, better performance can be achieved at the centre of the room, which can be explained by strong beam converge and the decreased multipath interference. Moreover, enlarging the separation between LEDs leads to improved bit error rate performance and reduced channel correlation of channel matrix, which need to be optimally chosen in practice.
