N2  - Visible light communications (VLC) is
considered as an alternative communications technology
for providing indoor wireless services. VLC systems are
expected to offer high data transmission rate and seamless
coverage. In order to achieve these requirements, VLC
systems utilizing multi-lightbeam access points (multibeam
VLC-AP) for downlink transmission have been
proposed recently. In this paper, we present a lightbeam
configuration method and an interference elimination
resource scheduling mechanism (IERS) for indoor multibeam
multi-access point VLC systems. The proposed lightbeam
configuration method ensures seamless connectivity
between user equipment and VLC-AP. The proposed IERS
mechanism consists of a beam assignment algorithm and
a resource allocation algorithm for eliminating co-channel
interference as well as improving system performance.
Performance results obtained by computer simulation
indicate that there are significant improvements in terms
of downlink signal to interference plus noise ratio, user
throughput and packet delay when the proposed IERS
mechanism is deployed.
