Soft switching performance analysis for heterogeneous visible light & RF hybrid link
The current visible light and radio frequency(RF) hybrid links are still obviously limited to the Lambertian beam configuration with simple spatial radiation characteristics. For addressing this issue, based on the non-Lambertian space radiation characteristics of commercial LED, a soft switching scheme of hybrid link between visible light and RF based on typical LUXEON Rebel non-Lambertian beam is proposed, and simulation analysis is carried out. The simulation results show that when the RF access point is set at the proximal end(dr=10 m) and the distal end(dr=60 m), the maximum throughput of the hybrid link of the proposed heterogeneous non-Lambertian beam configuration is 370.72 Mb/s and 275.68 Mb/s, respectively. When the transmission power is from 2~15 W, the hybrid link can introduce a throughput gain of up to about 14 Mb/s compared with the traditional Lambertian beam configuration.
