Abstract

This paper proposes a novel approach to provide a privately secured multiple-input and multiple-output visible light communication (VLC) in the mobility conditions. In the proposed system, a private secured VLC link is adaptively allocated to a mobile user all the time thanks to the movement tracking assistance by a camera-based detection system. The generation of the dynamic location-based scrambling matrix will be introduced providing a secured communication zone within a full normal coverage illumination area. An extensive range of numerical evaluation and practical experiments is carried out to demonstrate and evaluate the proposed system performance in different environment configurations including the mobility, camera resolutions, link range, and environment light intensity. We demonstrate that the proposed system is fully capable of securely steering the information with respect to a receiver location with a high level of reliability.

Summary

Introduction

With the advent of solid-state LED technological progress where the LED light can be modulated at high frequencies and the greatly increased demand for high-speed wireless data communication, the emerging VLC systems have been considered as one of the promising solutions for the future of wireless network generation [1] where the wireless carrier spectrum is increasingly higher. VLC will bring additional advantages alongside with the RF communication counterparts. The integrated optics facilitate the usage of diffuse-lenses along with LEDs to obtain dual luminosity and communication in VLC systems, reducing the carbon dioxide emissions by maintaining energy consumptions as low as possible [2]. As the light beam is concealed within the rooms or offices walls, VLC potentially offers secured communication in an enclosed space [6]. There is still a possibility for an eavesdropper to intercept the information within the
