Evolutionary algorithm based uniform received power and illumination rendering for indoor visible light communication

In this paper, an evolutionary algorithm based optimization scheme is proposed to realize uniform received power and illumination distribution on the communication floor for fully diffuse indoor visible light communication. Simulation results show that in three distributed lighting configurations, by dynamically modifying the relative optical intensity of transmitters the dynamic range of the received power, referenced against the peak received power, can be reduced to about 40.0% while the uniformity illuminance ratio can be improved up to about 0.70 with the impact to the root mean square delay spread and bandwidth being negligible. Furthermore, the relationship between the field of view of the receivers and the optimization performance is presented as well.
