Abstract

In this paper, channel modeling of VLC(Visible Light Communication) was investigated under indirect lightning circumstance which was the way that all phontons started from LED(Light Emitting Diode) were reached on the floor with NLOS paths. I supposed width(6m), depth(4m), height(2.2m) cube room circumstance for VLC communication channel and supposed that 4 LEDs were located at 2m height, which emitted photons at the direction of wall and ceiling. Channel characteristics, which were power attenuation and delayed receiving of light signal, were abstracted from receivers(PDs) which were located at 0.5m above from floor. The availability of channel was verified via BPSK based communication simulation.

본 논문에서는 간접 조명 환경에서 가시광(VLC : Visible Light Communication) 통신을 위한 채널 특성을 모델링하였다. 간접 조명은 직사 조도가 없이 모든 광속이 천정 및 벽을 반사한 후에 실내 바닥 면에 고르게 도달하는 방식이며, 광원에서 출발한 광 입자(Photon)는 간접경로(NLOS : None Line of Sight)를 통하여 수신부(PD, Photodiode)에 도달한다. 실내 간접 조명 환경으로서 가로(6m), 세로(4m), 높이(2.2m) 크기의 방(room)을 가정하였으며, 4개의 LED(Light Emitting Diode) 간접 조명을 2m 높이에 위치하여 벽과 천정을 향하여 빛을 비추도록 하였다. 바닥으로부터 50cm 위에 위치한 PD에서 수신 전력의 크기와 지연 수신된 신호를 통하여 채널 특성을 추출하였다. 도출된 채널은 BPSK 기반 통신 시뮬레이션을 통해서 그 유효성을 입증하였다.
