A complete and comprehensive reference on modulation and signal
processing for visible light communication
This informative new book on state-of-the-art visible light
communication (VLC) provides, for the first time, a systematical and
advanced treatment of modulation and signal processing for VLC. Visible
Light Communications: Modulation and Signal Processing offers a
practical guide to designing VLC, linking academic research with
commercial applications.
In recent years, VLC has attracted attention from academia and industry
since it has many advantages over the traditional radio frequency,
including wide unregulated bandwidth, high security, and low cost. It is
a promising complementary technique in 5G and beyond wireless
communications, especially in indoor applications. However, lighting
constraints have not been fully considered in the open literature when
considering VLC system design, and its importance has been
underestimated. That's why this book--written by a team of experts with
both academic research experience and industrial development experience
in the field--is so welcome. To help readers understand the theory and
design of VLC systems, the book:
- Details many modern techniques on both modulation and signal
processing aspects
- Links academic research with commercial applications in visible light
communications as well as other wireless communication systems
- Combines theoretical rigor with practical examples in presenting
optical camera communication systems
Visible Light Communications: Modulation and Signal Processing serves
as a useful tool and reference book for visible light communication
professionals, as well as wireless communication system professionals
and project managers. It is also an important guide for undergraduates
and graduates who want to conduct research in areas of wireless
communications.
