High Efficiency Modulation Technique for Visible Light


Communication (VLC)
Amgad F Aziz, Omar AM Aly, Usama S Mohammed

Abstract:

In this paper, sparse activated subcarriers OFDM index modulation (SAS-OFDM-IM) and interpolated sparse activated
subcarriers OFDM index modulation (ISAS-OFDM-IM) are proposed to improve the spectrum efficiency of OFDM
modulation technique in visible light communication (VLC) systems. To be suitable for intensity modulation (IMod) by Light
Emitting Diode (LED) used in VLC systems, the Unipolar Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (U-OFDM) is used. U-
OFDM is more power efficient in an Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel, which is prevalent in an optical
wireless system. At the receiver, threshold detector has been used for detecting the activated subcarriers by taking the highest
K out of N, where N is the total number of OFDM subcarriers and K is the total number of activated subcarriers. Results
indicate that, using the proposed schemes can improve both the spectral efficiency …
