Collaborative multibeam transmitter and imaging receiver in realistic environment

In this paper, we propose a collaborative mobile optical wireless (OW) system that employs a collaborative adaptive beam clustering method (CABCM) in conjunction with an imaging receiver. Collaborative maximum ratio combining (MRCColl) scheme is used to collaboratively distribute the transmit power among diffusing spots. The main goal is to increase the received optical power and improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at each coexisting receiver when the system operates in a multiuser scenario under the constraints of background noise, multipath dispersion and mobility. Our proposed system (collaborative adaptive beam clustering method) is evaluated at 30 Mbit/s to enable comparison with previous work, and is also assessed at higher bit rates: 2.5 Gbit/s and 5 Gbit/s. Simulation results show that at a bit rate of 30 Mbit/s, a significant SNR improvement of 39 dB is achieved when a CABCM system replaces a multiuser line strip multibeam system (LSMS) at a 6 m transmitter-receiver horizontal separation. The results also show that the proposed system can achieve a 22 dB SNR when the system operates at 2.5 Gbit/s in a two-user scenario.
