    Vehicular visible light communications (VLC) has emerged as a viable supplement for high speed next-generation vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication systems. However, performance of a V2V-VLC link is impaired due to nonlinear transfer-characteristics of light emitting diodes (LEDs), and inter-symbol interference (ISI). In this article, a low-complexity least-squares based post-distortion algorithm is formulated over reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) for a multi-hop V2V-VLC link. The impairments encountered in V2V-VLC channels are mitigated in RKHS by a minimum symbol error-rate post-distorter using a low dimensional approximation of random Fourier features (RFF) (which is a soft approximation of the feature-map to RKHS), that facilitates computationally simple post-distortion under finite memory-budget. The convergence and the BER-performance of the proposed post-distorter is analyzed over realistic V2V VLC channels obtained via ray-tracing. From the analysis, and the presented computer-simulations, the proposed post-distorter is found to exhibit equivalent convergence characteristics and error-rate over reasonable distances, with much lower computational complexity.

    Least minimum symbol error rate based post-distortion for adaptive mobile VLC transmission with receiver selection
    (Elsevier B.V., 2021-08) Miramirkhani, Farshad; Karbalayghareh, Mehdi; Mitra, Rangeet
    In the context of beyond-5G indoor communication systems, visible light communication (VLC) has emerged as a viable supplement for existing RF-based systems and as an enabler for high datarate communications. However, the existing indoor VLC systems are limited by detrimental outages caused by fluctuations in the VLC channel-gain due to user-mobility. Furthermore, the nonlinear characteristics of the light-emitting diode (LED) degrade the performance of VLC systems in the highpower regime by warping the input constellation. Additional performance-limits are introduced by inter-symbol interference (ISI) due to finite modulation-bandwidth of LEDs, and reflections from walls. In this paper, a random Fourier feature (RFF) based post-distorter is considered for mitigating the LED nonlinearity, and relevant expressions for the signal to noise ratio (SNR) are derived for a direct current biased optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DCO-OFDM) system. Based on the derived expressions for SNR, the effects of user-mobility and ISI are mitigated by a DCO-OFDM based adaptive VLC transmission technique, which varies the transmission-rate/modulation-order under a specified error-rate constraint. Simulations are presented over channels obtained by ray-tracing, which indicates that the proposed algorithm achieves superior data-rates with a significantly lower error-rate.
