Hardware Architectures of Visible Light Communication Transmitter and Receiver for Beacon-based Indoor Positioning Systems

A Visible Light Based Indoor Positioning System

In this paper, we propose a novel indoor localization scheme, Lightitude, by exploiting ubiquitous visible lights, which are necessarily and densely deployed in almost all indoor environments. We unveil two phenomena of lights available for positioning: 1) the light strength varies according to different light sources, which can be easily detected by light sensors embedded in COTS devices (e.g....

Asynchronous indoor positioning system based on visible light communications

Indoor positioning has become an attractive research topic within the past two decades. However, no satisfying solution has been found with consideration of both accuracy and system complexity. Recently, research on visible light communications (VLC) offer new opportunities in realizing accurate indoor positioning with relatively simple system configuration. An indoor positioning system based o...

LED-Based Visible Light Communication and Positioning Technology and SoCs

The rapid deployment of high-energy-efficiency, solid-state light emission diode (LED) lighting devices, replacing the conventional luminaires devices, brings unprecedented opportunities for alternative optical wireless communication and navigation applications. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art of LED-based visible light communications (VLC) and positioning (VLP) technologies with a focu...
