Design and demonstration of room division multiplexing-based hybrid VLC network
A room division multiplexing (RDM)-based hybrid visible light communication (VLC) network for realizing indoor broadband communication within a multi-room house is presented. The downlink information is transmitted by light-emitting diode lamps, whereas the uplink information is transmitted through WiFi. RDM is introduced to improve the VLC network throughput; in addition, the associated signaling localization and active handoff mechanisms are designed for implementation. The experimental platform demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid architecture, along with the RDM and active handoff mechanisms.
