Cutting-edge Advances in Visible Light Communication Technologies and Applications
Abstract
Visible Light Communication (VLC) is an intelligent method of communication that does not require wires and thus has the potential to utilize light in the visible spectrum, which is still underutilized. VLC has emerged as a backup for traditional RF systems, especially in the areas where RF bandwidth is a concern or unavailable. With the advancement in LED technology, VLC has been identified to have data transmission rates that are as good as the existing standard wireless communication systems and with low power consumption. Also, since VLC is a physical layer secure technology that does not transmit signals through walls, it presents a significant advantage in specific missions that require secure networking. This paper evaluates how the advancement in VLC has presented it as a viable option for replacing traditional radio communication methods. This paper uses current modulation techniques and complex photodetector designs to examine how VLC can transform vital application areas such as underwater optical transmission, car communication, and urban networking.
