Instead of using RF bandwidth, VLC uses the visible light spectrum to perform lighting and communications functions simultaneously. In a large indoor environment, a multiple ceiling access point VLC network (multi-CAP VLC) is deployed to achieve seamless coverage and high spectral efficiency. In the multi-CAP VLC network, random movement of user equipment (UE) leads to an uneven load distribution between CAPs. Furthermore, the quality of service of cell-edge users who reside at cell edge areas is decreased due to the high attenuation of the received signal. In the paper, to improve the QoS of cell-edge UEs, we propose a coordinated multi-channel transmission scheme (CMcT) for indoor multi-CAP VLC networks. The CMcT performs a coordinated downlink data transmission from different CAPs to a UE simultaneously. Performance results obtained by computer simulation show that the CMcT scheme can significantly improve user throughput and packet delay comparing with those of the single-channel transmission scheme. date: 2019-09-12 date_type: published full_text_status: public pres_type: paper event_title: 2019 19th International Symposium on Communications and Information Technologies (ISCIT) event_location: Ho Chi Minh city event_dates: 25-27/09/2019 event_type: conference refereed: FALSE funders: ĐHQGHN projects: QG 18.35 citation: Tran, Cong Nam and Nguyen, Nam Hoang and Hoang, Trong Minh (2019) Coordinated Multi-channel Transmission Scheme for Indoor Multiple Access Point VLC Networks.
