TL;DR: An experimental demonstration of indoor wireless visible-light communication transmission at 1 Gb/s is reported, using a four-channel multiple-input multiple-output link that uses white LED sources.
Abstract: This letter reports an experimental demonstration of indoor wireless visible-light communication transmission at 1 Gb/s. The system consists of a four-channel multiple-input multiple-output link that uses white LED sources, each transmitting signals at 250 Mb/s using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing modulation. A nine-channel imaging diversity receiver is used to detect the signals, and an average bit error rate of 10-3 is achieved at the room illumination level of ~1000 lux at 1-m range.

TL;DR: An experimental demonstration of high-speed indoor optical wireless Optical multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system with an imaging receiver is reported.
Abstract: This letter reports an experimental demonstration of high-speed indoor optical wireless Optical multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system with an imaging receiver. The system consists of a 2x1 array of white LEDs that transmit data to a 9 channel imaging receiver that uses a 3x3 photodetector array. A total transmission rate of 220Mbit/s at a BER of 10-3 is achieved over a range of 1m. An overview of the design specifications, optical design and experimental setup are reported in this letter, together with results and discussion of how improvements to the system may be achieved. © 2010 IEEE.

TL;DR: It is found that the diarrheal fecal microbiota could be robustly categorized into 4 microbial configurations that either generally resembled or were highly divergent from a healthy state, and that Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum was significantly depleted during dysenteric diarrhea regardless of the etiological agent.
Abstract: Diarrheal diseases remain the second most common cause of mortality in young children in developing countries. Efforts have been made to explore the impact of diarrhea on bacterial communities in the human gut, but a thorough understanding has been impeded by inadequate resolution in bacterial identification and the examination of only few etiological agents. Here, by profiling an extended region of the 16S rRNA gene in the fecal microbiome, we aimed to elucidate the nature of gut microbiome perturbations during the early phase of infectious diarrhea caused by various etiological agents in Vietnamese children. Fecal samples from 145 diarrheal cases with a confirmed infectious etiology prior to antimicrobial therapy and 54 control subjects were analyzed. We found that the diarrheal fecal microbiota could be robustly categorized into four microbial configurations that either generally resembled or were highly divergent from a healthy state. Factors such as age, nutritional status, breastfeeding, and the etiology of the infection were significantly associated with these microbial community structures. We observed a consistent elevation of Fusobacterium mortiferum, Escherichia, and oral microorganisms in all diarrheal fecal microbiome configurations, proposing similar mechanistic interactions, even in the absence of global dysbiosis. We additionally found that Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum was significantly depleted during dysenteric diarrhea regardless of the etiological agent, suggesting that further investigations into the use of this species as a dysentery-orientated probiotic therapy are warranted. Our findings contribute to the understanding of the complex influence of infectious diarrhea on gut microbiome and identify new opportunities for therapeutic interventions.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that Salmonella are an important cause of paediatric gastroenteritis in this setting and it is suggested that transmission may occur through direct human contact in the home.
Abstract: Non-typhoidal Salmonella are an important but poorly characterized cause of paediatric diarrhoea in developing countries. We conducted a hospital-based case-control study in children aged 2 children (cases 20∙8%, controls 10∙2%; OR 2∙32, 95% CI 1∙2-4∙7). Our findings indicate that Salmonella are an important cause of paediatric gastroenteritis in this setting and we suggest that transmission may occur through direct human contact in the home.

TL;DR: This paper provides a comprehensive survey on VLC with an emphasis on challenges faced in indoor applications over the period 1979-2014.
Abstract: Visible Light Communication (VLC) is an emerging field in Optical Wireless Communication (OWC) which utilizes the superior modulation bandwidth of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to transmit data. In modern day communication systems, the most popular frequency band is Radio Frequency (RF) mainly due to little interference and good coverage. However, the rapidly dwindling RF spectrum along with increasing wireless network traffic has substantiated the need for greater bandwidth and spectral relief. By combining illumination and communication, VLC provides ubiquitous communication while addressing the shortfalls and limitations of RF communication. This paper provides a comprehensive survey on VLC with an emphasis on challenges faced in indoor applications over the period 1979–2014. VLC is compared with infrared (IR) and RF systems and the necessity for using this beneficial technology in communication systems is justified. The advantages of LEDs compared to traditional lighting technologies are discussed and comparison is done between different types of LEDs currently available. Modulation schemes and dimming techniques for indoor VLC are discussed in detail. Methods needed to improve VLC system performance such as filtering, equalization, compensation, and beamforming are also presented. The recent progress made by various research groups in this field is discussed along with the possible applications of this technology. Finally, the limitations of VLC as well as the probable future directions are presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a visible light communication (VLC) system based on a single 50-μm gallium nitride light emitting diode (LED) with a 3-dB modulation bandwidth of at least 60 MHz.
Abstract: This letter presents a visible light communication (VLC) system based on a single 50- μm gallium nitride light emitting diode (LED). A device of this size exhibits a 3-dB modulation bandwidth of at least 60 MHz - significantly higher than commercially available white lighting LEDs. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing is employed as a modulation scheme. This enables the limited modulation bandwidth of the device to be fully used. Pre- and postequalization techniques, as well as adaptive data loading, are successfully applied to achieve a demonstration of wireless communication at speeds exceeding 3 Gb/s. To date, this is the fastest wireless VLC system using a single LED.
