Abstract

This paper presents a new optimized simulation algorithm of the optical wireless channel. It has a faster convergence for SISO (Single Input Single Output) systems, while it significantly reduces computation time for MISO (Multiple Inputs Single Output) systems, which are the main ones in WBANs (Wireless Body Area Networks). Our algorithm is based on Monte Carlo methods, and uses 3D launched rays. Its main difference with previous solutions relies on reversing the process of propagation of optical waves, to solve efficiently and in real environments the global illumination equation modeling the propagation of light. Experimental results and comparisons with the literature are given in terms of precision and computation time.
