Abstract
Oversampled modulation (OM) and undersampled modulation (UM) are two commonly used optical camera communication (OCC) modulation schemes for high-speed communication in short-range and reliable communication at long distances, respectively. However, the relationship between these two schemes and the tradeoff in performance for arbitrary communication distances have not been thoroughly investigated. In this study, we analyze the impact of distance and modulation parameters on pixel efficiency and packet delivery rate performance, demonstrating the underlying unity of traditional OM and UM schemes. Furthermore, we propose a generalized modulation scheme that allows for achieving predefined link performance at a given distance by adjusting the modulation parameters, such as packet length and repetition counts. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed generalized modulation scheme provides OCC with a unique distance-aware capability other than the traditional OM and UM schemes, which are two special cases focusing on effectiveness and reliability, respectively. This research enhances our understanding of OCC data modulation and establishes a theoretical foundation for achieving efficient and reliable OCC transmission in complex environments.
