Abstract
The performance of visible light communication (VLC)-based optical attocell networks degrades due to shadowing caused by opaque objects. In order to improve reliability, we propose a cross-layer algorithm to find the optimal routing and resource allocation schemes when shadowing occurs. Simulation results show that the optimal scheme found by the proposed algorithm significantly improves the performance of optical attocell networks with one randomly shadowed link
