    Visible light communication (VLC) is a rapidly growing wireless communication technology for the Internet of Things (IoT) that offers high data rates and low latency, making it ideal for massive connectivity. Efficient resource allocation is essential in VLC networks to minimize inter-symbol and co- channel interferences, which can greatly improve network perfor- mance and user satisfaction. This paper focuses on an indoor IoT- based VLC system that utilizes photodetectors (PDs) on users’ cell phones as receivers, with the goal of maximizing system performances and reducing power consumption by selectively activating some PDs while deactivating others. However, this objective presents a challenge due to the inherent non-convex nature of the multi-objective optimization problem, which cannot be solved by analytical means. To address this, we propose an enhanced Aquila optimization (EAO) scheme that improves upon the Aquila Optimizer (AO) by incorporating a fitness distance balance (FDB) function. We evaluate our proposed EAO in various scenarios under different settings, considering both capacity and fairness metrics. Through simulations, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach and its superiority over classical algorithms such as Aquila Optimizer (AO), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) in finding the optimal solution. Our results confirm that the proposed EAO algorithm can efficiently optimize the system capacity and ensure fairness among all users, providing a promising solution for indoor VLC systems.

    Performance evaluation of vehicular Visible Light Communication based on angle-oriented receiver
    (Elsevier, 2022) Yahia, Selma; Meraihi, Yassine; Cherif, Amar Ramdane; Benmessaoud Gabis, Asma; B. Eldeeb, Hossien
    Visible Light Communication (VLC) has emerged as a promising technology to complement radio frequencybased vehicular communications. Initial studies in Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) VLC systems assumed that two vehicles follow each other with perfect alignment. Such idealistic assumption is not always maintained during traveling along the road. The lateral shift between the vehicles might strongly impact the system performance. In addition, the effect of the transceiver and system parameters on the performance of V2V-VLC systems should be taken into account. In this paper, we fill this research gap by investigating the performance of V2VVLC systems under the impact of the lateral shift between the vehicles and transceiver parameters. Then, we introduce the use of the angle-oriented receiver (AOR) in V2V-VLC systems to enhance the system performance in terms of achievable capacity, maximum achievable distance, and packet delivery ratio (PDR). The AOR consists of multiple receiving elements oriented in different directions. We further investigate the impact of the number of AOR elements, both the field-of-view (FoV) and the aperture diameter of each receiving element, and the bandwidth on the system performance. Our results demonstrate that with a carefully chosen system and AOR parameters, a higher system capacity of up to 61 Mb/s is achieved at a communication distance of 50 m.
