Abstract
- Optical Wireless Communication (OWC) is being explored for application in the next-generation broadcasting networks, where possessing accurately determined user locations becomes increasingly important. Received signal strength (RSS) Visible Light Positioning (VLP)-based localisation systems aim to deliver these centimetre-level location data at a low cost by featuring but a single photodiode (PD). Maximising the VLP accuracy requires optimising the LED transmitter locations, which is missing currently. An evolutionary optimisation algorithm is proposed to determine the optimal LED locations and the associated positioning error values for various configurations. The sensitivity of the planning on the number of VLP-enabled LEDs, the LEDs’ characteristics, the room dimensions and the positioning parameters is investigated. Experimental data, i.e., two datasets with 1572 measurement points each, serve to validate the simulations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
