Abstract
En 中文
Visible light communication (VLC) offers wireless communication within short-range based on wavelength converters and light-emitting diode (LED). In the VLC system, conventional forward error correction (FEC) codes are not guaranteed to provide flicker mitigation and dimming support. Consequently, modified coding schemes are introduced for reliable VLC. These methods require complicated coding structures, use of lookup tables, and the addition of large redundancy, resulting to increased computational complexity and low transmission efficiency. In this article, we propose a coding scheme that is flicker-free and enhances the transmission efficiency for VLC systems. The proposed scheme is based on polar codes (PC) and Knuth balancing code with enhanced prefix coding technique. The results show that the proposed algorithm exhibits improved transmission efficiency compared to the PC without and with run-length limited code, for dimming values 75% (or 25%) and 87.5% (or 12.5%). Also, the proposed scheme presents a significant bit error rate (BER) performance gain compared to the schemes in literature. The proposed scheme is flicker-free, provides a simple encoding structure, does not utilize lookup tables, generates minimal number of redundancies for energy efficiency. Thus, the approach is flexible, and it is more suitable for real-time VLC systems.
