Journal ArticleDOI
Survey of ultraviolet non-line-of-sight communications
Robert J. Drost,Brian M. Sadler +1 more
TL;DR: A review of the NLOS UVC literature can be found in this article, where a range of topics from channel modelling and experimentation through system analysis and prototype development are examined, as well as the existence of many avenues for continued exploration.
Journal ArticleDOI
UV communications channel modeling incorporating multiple scattering interactions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a comprehensive derivation of a multiple-scattering Monte Carlo UV channel model to study the contribution of different orders of scattering to the path loss and impulse response functions associated with general UV communication system geometries.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Constellation design for color-shift keying using billiards algorithms
Robert J. Drost,Brian M. Sadler +1 more
TL;DR: This work examines the design of CSK signaling constellations for an additive white Gaussian noise channel, incorporating the common requirement that the RGB LED outputs a specific, possibly time-varying, perceived color.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constellation Design for Channel Precompensation in Multi-Wavelength Visible Light Communications
Robert J. Drost,Brian M. Sadler +1 more
TL;DR: Simulation results demonstrate the design approach and the potential performance enhancement that can be achieved for particular system scenarios, and real-world evidence of the benefit of applying the proposed framework to VLC channel precompensation is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultraviolet scattering propagation modeling: analysis of path loss versus range
TL;DR: This work derives the approximate relationship PL[proportionality]r(2-n) between path loss PL and range r for nth-order scattered radiation, and investigates the region of validity of this approximation.
