Abstract

In this paper, channel modeling and analysis of wireless visible light communication(VLC) were studied in indoor circumstance. Photons emitted from LED straightly moved and navigated within indoor, after that a part of photons reached on PD via LOS(Line Of Sight) or NLOS(None Line Of Sight). These received signals had characteristics of delay profile and attenuation, which was multiple-path fading. In this paper, computer simulation of VLC channel was executed under the condition that two LEDs were used for transmitter and three PDs were located at different positions of the 20*8*2.3m sized indoor. BER performance simulation was excuted based on the characteristics of each VLC channel.

본 논문에서는 실내 환경에서 LED(Light Emitting Diode)를 이용한 가시광 통신(VLC : Visible Light Communication) 채널의 특성을 모델링 및 분석하였다. LED에서 방사된 광 입자(Photon)의 일부는 직접(LOS : Line Of Sight) 또는 반사(NLOS : None Line Of Sight)의 경로를 거쳐서 PD(PhotoDiode)에 도달하며, 이것은 수신 부에서 시간 지연(delay profile)과 감쇠(attenuation)를 가진 다중 수신 신호 특성을 나타낸다. 가로, 세로, 높이의 크기가 20*8*2.3m로 가정된 실내 환경에서 2개의 LED와 3개의 PD를 사용하여, 각 PD에서 직접파, 반사파에 의한 채널 특성을 컴퓨터 모의실험하고 분석하였다. 채널 모델별 특성은 BPSK 기반의 통신 모의실험을 통하여 그 유용성을 입증하였다.
