A Review of Visible Light Communications in Automotive Applications
Downloads
This paper presents the concept of an intelligent transportation network based on Visible Light Communications (VLC) applications by enabling wireless communication among vehicles and the traffic infrastructure, safety, efficiency, and the Environment and reducing fuel waste. Intelligent Transport Systems resulted in the safer, more efficient, and eco-friendlier movement of vehicles. Considering the numerous advantages of the VLC technology encouraged the survey in automotive applications as an alternative to traditional radio frequency-based communications.
