Successive Light Interference Cancellation and Allocation (SLICA) Algorithm for Indoor VLC System: A Backbone for 6G Network

Abstract

This paper considers a successive light interference cancellation and allocation algorithm (SLICA) practicing interference cancellation for an indoor visible light communication (VLC) system based on successive interference cancellation (SIC) technique. The interference among users is cancelled with the help of the proposed approach to reduce computational complexity. VLC has become the cornerstone of intelligence in the current scenario. The data services allocated to the users are demand based and rely on their channel conditions. The data is allocated to user by modulating light waves via illuminated LEDs. The receiving end has photodiode installed in it to recover back the data. Better performance rate is achieved with lesser interference with the proposed approach. To guarantee good (quality-of service) QoS, considerable simulations are carried out considering real- time scenario which further demonstrates the high level performance of the proposed approach over conventional approach. Based on the analysis, the SINR and interference level is demonstrated for the conventional and the proposed approach and there is a hike in the performance rate of SINR and interference level of about 20 – 30 % with the applied proposed approach. The prior motto of this study is to enhance the system throughput and improve per user average performance rate and reducing the complexity of the system. This contributes to the total efficiency of the optical indoor VLC network. Our proposed algorithm will provide a strong backbone for the 6G deployment.
