    Valuation of Physical Layer Security Under Jamming Attacks Utilizing RIS
    (2025) Refas, Souad; Meraihi, Yassine; Ivanova, Galina; Baiche, Karim; Cherif, Amar Ramdane; Acheli, Dalila
    Vehicular visible light communication (V VLC) systems, when combined with reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS), present promising opportunities for improving communication reliability and efficiency in vehicle to vehicle (V2V) environments. Nevertheless, safeguarding these systems at the physical layer remains a critical challenge, particularly given their exposure to jamming threats. In this study, we investigate the physical layer security performance of RIS assisted V2V VLC systems under jamming scenarios, employing realistic V2V VLC channel models. We develop a methodology to examine the impact of various security strategies in mitigating the adverse effects of jamming. Our analysis examines key parameters including the signal to noise ratio SNR, the secure communication rate and the count of RIS units. Simulation results confirm that the proposed security systems significantly enhance the resilience of V2V VLC networks in the presence of jamming attacks. These results offer useful perspectives for the reliable design structure and deployment of RIS based V2V VLC systems in practical vehicular communication settings.

    Energy harvesting based on SLIPT in I2V-VLC system
    (IEEE, 2023) Refas, Souad; Acheli, Dalila; Yahia, Selma; Meraihi, Yassine
    Vehicular connectivity is mostly based on wireless access. The vehicular applications may be limited due to the limited battery life of the equipment involved. To address this issue, a method based on simultaneous light wave information and power transfer (SLIPT) is proposed for harvesting the energy in the Infrastructure-to-Vehicle Visible Light Communication (I2VVLC) system. The purpose of SLIPT is to harvest energy using light sources while decoding information. This article studies the effect of SLIPT in an I2V-VLC system. In this method, the received light from the traffic light source at the vehicle is harvested while decoding the information signal. First, for I2VVLC channel modeling, a recent realistic channel model using the ray-tracing method is utilized. Then, we propose the energy harvesting analysis based on the SLIPT strategy. After that, we investigate the impact of both the longitudinal and lateral distance between the vehicle and the traffic light on the amount of harvested energy. Furthermore, we investigate the relationship between the achievable information rate and the harvested energy amount. The obtained results demonstrate the significant impact of the communication distance and the required information rate on the quantity of harvested energy

    Enhanced Whale Optimization Algorithm for mesh routers placement problem in wireless mesh networks
    (IEEE, 2022) Mekhmoukh Taleb, Sylia; Meraihi, Yassine; Yahia, Selma; Benmessaoud Gabis, Asma; Ramdane-Cherif, Amar; Acheli, Dalila
    In order to address the placement issue for mesh routers in wireless mesh networks, this study suggests an enhanced variant of the Whale optimization Algorithm (WOA), called ELG-WOA. The Generalized Opposition Based-Learning (GOBL) and the Levy Flight Distribution (LFD) are two methods that were incorporated into the original WOA to form the foundation of the ELG-WOA. Four performance indicators, including coverage, connectivity, load balancing, and fitness value, are used to validate the performance of ELG-WOA. The simulation results showed that ELG-WOA outperformed WOA and Bat Algorithm (BA)

    Advances in coyote optimization algorithm : variants and applications
    (Springer, 2023) Meraihi, Yassine; Gabis, Asma Benmessaoud; Ramdane-Cherif, Amar; Acheli, Dalila
    Coyote Optimization Algorithm (COA) is a recent population-based technique inspired by the attitude of coyotes in nature. COA has been widely applied to tackle different optimization issues in several areas and has proved its successfulness compared to several methods found in the literature. In this paper, we describe a brief overview of COA and its variants including adjusted and hybridized versions. Additionally, we present COA applications in various fields such as image segmentation, wireless mesh networks, economic dispatch, electric power systems, distributed generation, and other engineering issues. Finally, we recommend some interesting future research areas directions for COA

    Mesh router nodes placement for wireless mesh networks based on an enhanced Moth–Flame optimization algorithm
    (Springer, 2023) Mekhmoukh Taleb, Sylia; Meraihi, Yassine; Mirjalili, Seyedali; Acheli, Dalila; Ramdane-Cherif, Amar; Benmessaoud Gabis, Asma
    This paper proposes an enhanced version of Moth Flame Optimization (MFO) algorithm, called Enhanced Chaotic Lévy Opposition-based MFO (ECLO-MFO) for solving the mesh router nodes placement problem in wireless mesh network (WMN-MRNP). The proposed ECLO-MFO incorporates three strategies including the chaotic map concept, the Lévy flight strategy, and the Opposition-Based Learning (OBL) technique to enhance the optimization performance of MFO. Firstly, chaotic maps are used to increase the chaotic stochastic behavior of the MFO algorithm. Lévy flight distribution is adopted to increase the population diversity of MFO. Finally, OBL is introduced to improve the convergence speed of MFO and to explore the search space effectively. The effectiveness of the proposed ECLO-MFO is tested based on various scenarios under different settings, considering network connectivity and client coverage metrics. The results of simulation obtained using MATLAB 2020a demonstrate the accuracy and superiority of ECLO-MFO in determining the optimal positions of mesh routers when compared with the original MFO and ten other optimization algorithms such as Genetic Algorithm (GA), Simulated Annealing (SA), Harmony Search (HS), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Artificial Bee Colony (ABC), Cuckoo Search Algorithm (CS), Bat Algorithm (BA), Firefly optimization (FA), Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO), and Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA)

    (Elsevier, 2021) Yahia, Selma; Meraihi, Yassine; Ramdane-Cherif, Amar; Gabis, Asma Benmessaoud; Acheli, Dalila; Guan, Hongyu
    Visible Light Communication (VLC) is a subset of Optical Wireless Communication (OWC) originally based on Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) for data transmission in an imperceptible way to human vision. Thanks to its wide license-free bandwidth, high security, and its low cost, VLC becomes a revolutionary alternative to the Radio Frequency (RF) networks. This paper presents a comprehensive survey of VLC channel modeling techniques. It describes the main VLC channel components. It gives different channel models in indoor, outdoor, underwater, and underground environments. It draws a synthesis comparing the algorithms proposed in each environment. Moreover, the paper gives concluding remarks and future research directions for VLC channel models
