Wu, Hongjia (author), Wang, Q. (author), Xiong, Jie (author), Zuniga, Marco (author)Visible Light Communication (VLC) based on LEDs has been a hot topic investigated for over a decade. However, most of the research efforts assume the intensity of LED light is constant. This hypothesis is not true when Smart Lighting is introduced to VLC, which requires LEDs to adapt their brightness based on the intensity of natural ambient...journal article 2020
