Mobile optical wireless system using fast beam Angle, delay and power adaptation with angle diversity receivers

In this paper, we introduce a novel fast angle and power adaptation method in optical wireless (OW) systems. The fast angle and power adaptive line strip multibeam system (FAPA-LSMS) can identify the optimum spots distribution based on a divide and conquer (D&C) algorithm and can achieve a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performance comparable to that obtained using the normal APA-LSMS. This results in a significant reduction in the system adaptation time by a factor of 20. The proposed FAPA system makes use of delay adaptation to minimize the delay spread at the receiver. A significant reduction in the delay spread by a factor of 50 can be achieved compared to the non-adaptive LSMS. The proposed system improves the SNR by 50 dB over a conventional diffuse system.
