Abstract
Optical wireless communication (OWC) systems have been the subject of attention as a promising wireless communication technology that can offer high data rates and support multiple users simultaneously. In this paper, the impact of room size is investigated when using wavelength division multiple access (WDMA) in conjunction with an angle diversity receiver (ADR). Four wavelengths (red, yellow, green and blue) can be provided in this work based on the RYGB LDs transmitter used. Three room sizes are considered with two 8-user scenarios. A mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model is proposed for the purpose of optimising the resource allocation. The optical channel bandwidth, SINR and data rate have been calculated for each user in both scenarios in all rooms. Room A, which is the largest room, can provide a higher channel bandwidth and SINR compared to the other rooms. However, all rooms can provide a data rate above 5 Gbps in both scenarios.
