Yayın Path loss and RMS delay spread model for VLC-based patient health monitoring system(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022-05-13) Dönmez, Barış; Miramirkhani, FarshadVisible Light Communication (VLC) emerges as a supplementary technology to ubiquitous Radio Frequency (RF) since VLC meets the very high data rate, very high reliability, and ultra-low latency requirements driven by the trends in beyond-5G communication systems. Since VLC offers a solution to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and security problems in hospital environments, it becomes a better alternative for Medical Body Sensor Networks (MBSNs). Nonetheless, user mobility in a 3D environment causes a degradation in channel DC gain that leads to an optical path loss and also affects the time dispersive properties of multipath channels. In our paper, we adopt a ray tracing-based site-specific channel modeling method to characterize VLC-based MBSNs channel parameters. Based on the channel characteristics, we propose statistical models for path loss and Root Mean Square (RMS) delay spread in realistic Intensive Care Unit (ICU) ward and Family-Type Patient Room (FTPR) where user upon which three MBSNs nodes placed walks over extensive realistic random trajectories. The simulation results indicate that both path loss and RMS delay spread follow a log-normal distribution.Yayın Channel modeling and characterization for VLC-based MBSNs impaired by 3D user mobility(IEEE, 2021-11-27) Dönmez, Barış; Miramirkhani, FarshadThis paper focuses on channel modeling and characterization of indoor visible light communication (VLC)-based medical body sensor networks (MBSNs) which establish links between light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and MBSNs nodes couple with photodetectors (PDs) placed on the shoulder (D1), wrist (D2), and ankle (D3) of the mobile user who walks over random trajectories in 3D scenarios of ICU ward and family type patient room. We adopt non-sequential ray-tracing to obtain channel impulse responses (CIRs) and channel characteristics over random trajectories. Based on simulation results, it is observed that channel DC gains exhibit sinusoidal behaviour for D1 and D2 except for D3 (i.e., due to the number of diffuse rays received at D3), as the user approaches and moves away from the luminaries. It is also revealed that a flat fading channel can be modeled if a data rate lower than 7.03 Mbit/s, i.e., sufficient for MBSNs applications, is chosen.Yayın A path loss model for vehicle-to-vehicle visible light communications(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-07) Eldeeb, Hossien Badr; Miramirkhani, Farshad; Uysal, MuratThe increasing adoption of LEDs in exterior automotive lighting makes visible light communication (VLC) a natural solution for vehicular networking. In this paper, we consider a vehicle-to-vehicle link and propose a path loss expression as a function of distance and different weather conditions. We conduct ray tracing simulations and verify the accuracy of proposed expression. We further use this expression to derive the achievable transmission distance for a targeted data rate while satisfying a given value of bit error rate. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the achievable distances for single and dual photodetector deployment cases.Yayın Effect of scattering phase function on underwater visible light communication channel models(Elsevier Ltd, 2021-10) Miramirkhani, Farshad; Karbalayghareh, Mehdi; Uysal, MuratNon-sequential ray tracing simulations are commonly employed to model underwater visible light communication (VLC) channels. The accuracy of such simulations highly depends on how well the optical properties of water (i.e., absorption and scattering) as well as scattering phase function (SPF) are modeled in the simulation. Existing empirical models are only a function of chlorophyll concentration and particle composition and are independent of refractive index, size and concentration of particles. In this paper, we carry out an underwater VLC channel modeling study using the Mie SPF which provides a full description of the scattering from phytoplankton particles which dominate the optical properties of most oceanic waters. We obtain the channel impulse response (CIR) based on an extensive non-sequential ray tracing study and calculate the fundamental channel parameters such as channel gain and delay spread. Comparison of CIRs reveals out that deployment of simplified SPF models results in the overestimation of path loss with respect to Mie SPF. Our results clearly demonstrate the importance of selecting realistic SPF models for an accurate underwater VLC channel modeling. While highlighting the channel models, we discuss adaptive modulation technique to maximize the data rate under the constraint of a targeted bit error rate. Besides, the maximum achievable distance is also determined both in terms of analytical guarantees and computer simulations. The results reveal that larger transmission distances can be achieved through Mie SPF channel model.
