On the impact of highpass filtering when using PAM-FDE for visible light communication

A next generation optical wireless communications standard is currently established, denoted as IEEE 802.15.7r1, targeting data rates between 1 Mbit/s and 10 Gbit/s. Selecting an appropriate transmission scheme is one of the critical tasks. Following this issue, this paper gives a review on PAM-FDE in VLC. Based on PAM-FDE laboratory measurements, we demonstrate the need to include highpass filtering into the propagation model. In this paper, numerical analyses investigate the impact of the resulting baseline wander on the performance. We include a multi-level 5S6S coding technique in order to prepare PAM-FDE for practice. Finally, research topics are summarized

Langley Aerospace Research Summer Scholars

The Langley Aerospace Research Summer Scholars (LARSS) Program was established by Dr. Samuel E. Massenberg in 1986. The program has increased from 20 participants in 1986 to 114 participants in 1995. The program is LaRC-unique and is administered by Hampton University. The program was established for the benefit of undergraduate juniors and seniors and first-year graduate students who are pursuing degrees in aeronautical engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, material science, computer science, atmospheric science, astrophysics, physics, and chemistry. Two primary elements of the LARSS Program are: (1) a research project to be completed by each participant under the supervision of a researcher who will assume the role of a mentor for the summer, and (2) technical lectures by prominent engineers and scientists. Additional elements of this program include tours of LARC wind tunnels, computational facilities, and laboratories. Library and computer facilities will be available for use by the participants
