Abstract:

Visible Light Communication (VLC) is an approach which uses LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) for lightning as well as for providing an opening for economical higher data transfer rate setup for wireless communication, which can be used as an alternative for effective and efficient communication that can merge with the demand for higher transfer rate wireless communication. In this paper, we take an inspection of VLC and provide a wide survey on advances and research activities in VLC focusing on several aspects such as main elements of VLC systems namely MU-MIMO and OFDM, potential applications and challenges for practical utilization, combination and commercialization. In addition, importance and discussion of high-speed MU-MIMO VLC systems are considered.

Keywords:

 MU-MIMO, Adaptive modulation, Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), Visible light communication (VLC).
