Neural-Network-Based Channel Estimation Method for Visible Light Communication Systems

▸ VLC physical layer techniques have advanced significantly during last decade. ▸ We have seen tremendous improvements in data rates, range and coverage. ▸ Novel devices such as SPADs and micro LEDs can improve VLC systems considerably. ▸ VLC is not just a point-to-point communication technology. ▸ Li-Fi attocellular networks achieves ever smaller cells to enable 10,000 more traffic, 100 times more wireless devices and peak data rates above 10 Gbps. ▸ Li-Fi enables secure wireless communications. ▸ Li-Fi is a strong candidate for 5G technology. ▸ Li-Fi supports the emerging Internet-of-Things as well as new ways of energy harvesting wireless communications.
