Advances in Visible Light Communication Technologies and Applications
Abstract
With the development of light emitting diode (LED) lighting technology and its wide applications, visible light communication (VLC) technology has also seen significant advancements. VLC is regarded as a supplementary technology to radio frequency (RF) due to its unregulated spectrum and extraordinarily high communication rates. In this paper, the advantages, architectures, key technologies, application scenarios and machine learning (ML) applications of VLC are reviewed and summarized.
