Abstract :
Visible light communication (VLC) is an efficient technology in order to improve the speed and robustness of the communication link in indoor optical wireless system. In order to achieve high data rate for VLC system, multiple input multiple output (MIMO) is a feasible option. However, contemporary MIMO-VLC system lacks from diversity and experiences performance variation through different optical optical channels. This is mostly because of characteristics of optical elements used for making the receiver. In this paper, we analyze the imaging diversity in MIMO-VLC system. Simulation results show diversity achieved in different cases.
