A multilayers adaptive ALACO-OFDM for spectral efficiency improvement using PSO algorithm in visible light communication systems

2023 , Aymen Abdalmunam Hameed , Anuar Mat Safar , Montadar Abas , Junita Mohd Nordin , Norizan Mohamed Nawawi

In this paper, we propose a new adaptive layered asymmetrically-clipped optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (ALACO-OFDM) technique as a method to improve the spectral efficiency of optical system, especially visible light communication (VLC). Particle swarm optimisation (PSO)-based LACO-OFDM method is used for this purpose and the channel capacities are studied. Simulations using variable layers are carried out to validate the theoretical steps. The simulation results indicate that the ALACO-OFDM technique has significantly improve the spectral efficiency compared to previous techniques such as ACO-OFDM. Moreover, it is shown that channel capacities of different layers are significantly improved when electrical power is increased.

Indoor Navigation System for Vision Impairment People through Visible Light Communications

2020-03-20 , Rithuan M.N. , `Aini Syuhada Md Zain , Norizan Mohamed Nawawi

Indoor navigation is opportune for everyone, and it is particularly requisite for the visually impaired. The paper proposes an indoor navigation system for the Visually Impaired to attain audio output through visible light communications. The transmission of data occurs after identifying the person who has entered the room and the technology light fidelity is used for presenting information to the user. Light fidelity technology is used by the proposed system for the wider range of transmission of data. The usage of visible light for transmitting the data encompasses a wide variety of advantages and eliminates most problems of communication caused by the electromagnetic waves outside the visible spectrum. Light fidelity technology is an evolving branch of Optical Wireless Communication and can be beneficial in coming years for indoor communication because it can afford higher data rate transmission along with the capability to utilize additional users since it uses a broader spectrum bandwidth. The main idea of our project is to create internal navigation system by using Arduino software and Arduino hardware. The transmission of data can act as transceiver, where LED and solar cell are used as the medium to transmit and receive the data.

High capacity of optical code division multiple access in visible light communication system using catenated OFDM modulation technique

2019 , Norizan Mohamed Nawawi

Visible light communication (VLC) system is a new technology as an alternative for crowded wireless communication using radio frequency spectrum. This technology offers unregulated, unlicensed and huge bandwidth to meet the growing demand in future indoor communication system. To date, the major challenge in VLC systems has been in improving transmission speed of VLC system with optimize bandwidth capacity. One of the method to improve spectral usage is using advanced modulation formats such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). In this work, a new approach for modulation technique based on modification of conventional OFDM has been developed in VLC system which capable to improve the spectral efficiency and optimize the data rate. This work also contributes to the development of mathematical model of optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) based on zero cross correlation code (ZCC) using a new modulation technique. This combination demonstrates an efficient access control in backbone design network to enhance the channel capacity, to upgrade the system data rate and at same time to improve sensitivity of photodetector. In particular, this thesis begins with the construction of a new modulation technique, namely catenated-OFDM that is developed based on multiband OFDM. In order to fulfill the next generation demand for higher data rate system, conventional OFDM-VLC is modified to get the optimum performance. A new mathematical framework of this modulation technique to analyze SNR and BER performance in VLC system has been derived. Simulation are carried out to evaluate some parameters that are not included in the numerical analysis. Different selection of parameter values such as bit rates, number of bands, effective power and propagation distance will have different effect on the system performance. Validation of theoretical results and simulation results are also conducted. Numerical analysis shown that the catenated-OFDM outperforms conventional OFDM by five times spectral efficiency improvement and eight times spectral efficiency improvement at their five and eight number of bands respectively. It is also shown that the proposed catenated-OFDM design is working well even at very high bit rate of 15 Gbps. In the combination of OCDMA-VLC using catenated-OFDM, the theoretical analysis and simulation model are also developed to evaluate and analyze its performance. This system theoretically demonstrates cardinality enhancement with double-fold, triple-fold and quadruple increase in number of user for (Band=2), (Band=5) and (Band=8) respectively compared to previous OCDMA ZCC-VLC system design. This result reveals improvement in term of receiver sensitivity which the power penalty of 7.3 dB compared to previous work. In addition, this integration provides higher receiver sensitivity; an approximately –17.7 dBm with 8 number of weight and fixed code length of 20. It is also found that, to accommodate more user, the system requires higher effective power at the receiver. This results exhibit the feasibility of the scheme to be one powerful modulation technique as a candidate for future access network. Thus, with a larger capacity, high data rate and enhanced security the OCDMA-VLC based on catenated-OFDM is predicted to be new considerable for upcoming OCDMA-VLC mobile communication system design.
