The impact of fog on performance of visible light communication

In this paper, the impact of fog on performance of VLC communication is explored. Highly modular testing system is based on LabVIEW software, modified National Instruments software defined radios (SDR) and commercially available LED car taillights. This work focuses on performance testing of multistate QAM modulations formats impaired by fog. An optional reference laser is used to monitor fog density throughout the whole measurement. This paper will present our testing solution and measured parameters.
