Visible light communication towards 6G: challenges and prospects

Overview

Abstract

VLC has its irreplaceable strength including rich spectrum resources, no electromagnetic disturbance, and high-security guarantee. Therefore it can be adopted as an alternative approach in 6G. In this report, a summary of the latest progress of VLC system will be introduced, which includes novel devices, advanced modulation, high-speed system, and Artificial intelligence (AI) related signal processing algorithm. We will also discuss the challenges and the prospects of high-speed VLC system in 6G.
