Frequently Asked Questions (17)
Q2. What is the way to generate white light?
For generation of white light for illumination, the use of violet-emitting LEDs exciting tricolor (red, green, and blue) phosphors also offers advantages over the widely used method of combining blue direct LED emission with a yellow-emitting phosphor.
Q3. What is the way to improve the coverage of the system?
Introducing optimized optics and deploying more micro-LED pixels from the array can improve both the coverage and the range of the system.
Q4. What is the effect of the nonlinear distortion on the transmission range of the VLC system?
The nonlinear distortion is found to affect the slow frequency region of the overall system bandwidth due to the limited dynamic range of the micro-LED.
Q5. Why is the improvement in bandwidth over the previous two?
The improvement in bandwidth over [14] is due to the smaller active area of the device that allowed higher current density and shorter carrier lifetime.
Q6. How can multiple access be easily supported in OFDM?
In addition, multiple access can be easily supported in OFDM by assigning groups of subcarriers to multiple users, which is known as orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA).
Q7. What causes the pixel to have a shunt resistance?
The pixels present a shunt resistance responsible for a subthreshold turn-on; this is attributed to damaged regions in the junction and by surface imperfections.
Q8. What is the a priori estimate of the OFDM channel?
The received waveform is processed with matched filters, fast Fourier transform (FFT) with CPs removal, single-tap equalizer using the a priori estimated channel, and demodulator.
Q9. What is the effect of the polarization on the micro-LED array?
The micro-LED array allows increasing the total output power with minimal reduction in performance due to mutual heating between pixels.
Q10. How can The authormultiplex the OFDM symbols into a serial time?
The symbols can then be multiplexed into a serial time) Bd( esnopser ycneuqer Fdomain output using an inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT).
Q11. What is the a priori value of the received OFDM waveform?
The received OFDM waveform, y t , can be expressed as follows:y t h t z x t n t ; (1) where h t is the VLC system channel, n t is the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) at the receiver with a variance σ2n, and z · is the nonlinear transformation of the micro-LED.
Q12. What is the experimental setup shown in Fig. 7?
The experimental setup, shown in Fig. 7, starts with a laptop connected to a Tektronix AWG (AWG70001A) that has a maximum sampling frequency of 50 GS/s with an ADC resolution of 10 bits per sample.
Q13. What can be considered as upper bounds on the system performance?
This can increase the mutual heat between the pixels and consequently degrade the total aggregate data rates; therefore the results in this section can be considered as upper bounds on the system performance.
Q14. What is the main source of nonlinearity in the overall system?
the micro-LED is assumed to be the main source of nonlinearity in the overall system due to the relatively limited dynamic range, compared to other system components.
Q15. What is the SNR used to load the subcarriers with variable constellation sizes?
The estimated SNR is used to adaptively load the subcarriers with variable constellation sizes at different energy levels based on the Levin–Campello algorithm [20].
Q16. What is the effect of the waveform acquisition mode of the oscilloscope?
The results for the waveform acquisition mode of the oscilloscope are only presented to show the effect of the nonlinear distortion in the absence of the photoreceiver AWGN noise.
Q17. Why is the deviation between theoretical and experimental validation points at Popt 4.94 d?
The deviation between theoretical and experimental validation points at Popt −4.94 dBm is due to the severe clipping distortion at DC current IDC 10 mA.
