Firstly, this algorithm establishes a fingerprint database using the received signal strength values and position coordinates. Then, it uses the global search capability of SCSSA to optimize key parameters of the RF algorithm, inputs the data into the optimal model for training, and averages the prediction results from the decision trees to obtain the predicted value for the target location point. The experimental results show that SCSSA-RF algorithm converges faster than the unimproved SSA-RF algorithm, the average positioning error of SCSSA-RF algorithm is 0.08 meters, with errors mainly concentrated between 0.05 to 0.1 meters. At a positioning error of 0.2 meters, the prediction accuracy of SCSSA-RF algorithm reaches 93%.
Regarding the strong correlation between channels that may be caused by dense layouts of transmitters and receivers in indoor multiple-input multiple-output visible light communication systems, which can lead to inter-channel interference and significantly affect communication quality, a challenge that is addressed by proposing the application of lattice basis reduction techniques to indoor visible light communication systems.By implementing a reduction operation on the visible light channel to reduce the correlation between channels, and applying the reduced channel matrix, combined with the zero forcing criterion and the minimum mean square error criterion, precoding design is carried out at the transmitting end. The simulation experiment results show that the application of lattice reduction technology can effectively improve the orthogonality of indoor visible light channels, and the more transceivers there are, the more obvious the improvement effect on channel correlation. The application of zero forcing criterion and minimum mean square error criterion can effectively improve the system's error rate performance.
Radio frequency(RF) wireless communication systems face issues of spectrum scarcity and access congestion. Integrating visible light communication (VLC) with RF can complementarily achieve advantages of high data rates and broad coverage. For indoor hybrid VLC/RF heterogeneous network scenarios, a joint optimization method that combines cell scaling power con trol and user association has been proposed to maximize the total system transmission rate under power and quality of service (QoS) constraints for users. By modeling this problem as a multi-variable coupled mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) optimization problem, it is effectively solved using the BARON optimization solver. The simulation results show that the integrated cell scaling in VLC/RF heterogeneous networks can achieve superior power allocation and user association, thereby enhancing the overall system transmission rate.

To improve the spectral efficiency of the system and solve the problem of single signal mode in traditional orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) systems, a layered hybrid visible light communication system based on binary on-off keying(OOK) and adaptive constellation optimization(ACO-OFDM) is designed. The transmitting end of the system uses OOK signals to limit the OFDM signal, generating ACO-OFDM and non adaptive constellation optimization (NACO)-OFDM signals. Add the OOK signal as a direct current (DC) bias to the NACO-OFDM signal to ensure that the output is a unipolar real signal. The receiving end adopts signal reconstruction technology, omitting the noise estimation step and reducing the receiving complexity to about 1/5 of traditional receivers. The simulation results show that the system can effectively demodulate OFDM and OOK signals, and at the maximum transmission layer, its spectral efficiency is about twice that of conventional single-layer systems.

Then, it is validated through simulation using the Monte Carlo method. The simulation and experimental results show that under conditions where the number of subcarriers is 128, the modulation scheme is 16QAM, and the system bit error rate is 10-3, the proposed system requires an improvement of approximately 5 dB in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) compared to the OFDM system. Meanwhile, at a normalized frequency of 0.1, the out-of-band leakage power of the proposed system is reduced by 40 dB relative to the OFDM system, with the system's modulation error ratio(MER) reaching 19.6 dB.

To mitigate the influence of temperature fluctuations on biological parameters, this paper proposes a multi-parameter sensing structure based on ring-core photonic crystal fiber (PCF) detection for measuring both the concentration of the breast cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA) and temperature. The proposed structure features an outer surface coated with a gold film, which creates a surface plasmon resonance sensing channel specifically designed for detecting BRCA concentration. Simultaneously, a thermosensitive liquid is filled into the central air holes of the PCF, forming a directional coupling sensing channel dedicated to precise temperature measurement. This design enables the correction of potential impacts of temperature changes on BRCA concentration measurements. The simulation results indicate that the concentration and temperature sensing channels of the sensor structure operate independently. Specifically, for the concentration sensing channel, when the BRCA concentration ranges from 0 to 7.69 mM, the concentration sensitivity can reach 19.5 nm/mM. For the temperature sensing channel, within a temperature range of 20 to 40℃, the temperature sensitivity is -6.4 nm/℃.

Furthermore, within a broad OSNR range, a recognition accuracy of 99.62% is achieved. In optical networks with residual dispersion, this approach still maintains high recognition performance.
