초록

최근에, LED를 사용한 WPAN 응용 기술에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만, LED를 이용한 가시광 통신은 통신을 수행하는데 약점을 가지고 있다. 시스템 성능을 저하시키는 요인으로 통신 환경에서 다른 물체에 의한 전파 지연으로 발생하는 다중 경로 페이딩을 들 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서 OFDM 기술은 다중 경로 페이딩과 분산을 줄이고, 고속 데이터 전송을 제공하기 위해서 적용하였다. 게다가, 광잡음에 의한 정보 손실을 줄이기 위해서 채널코딩으로써 터보 부호화 기술을 사용하였다. OFDM과 터보 부호화를 적용하므로써, 약 4 [dB] 정도의 성능향상을 보임을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 도플러 효과가 일어난다고 가정하였을 경우, 시스템 성능이 저하됨을 시뮬레이션을 통해 알 수 있었다.

In the ubiquitous age, applications of wireless personal area network (WPAN) technology using LEDs are in progress. However, visible light communications (VLC) using the LEDs have weakness which deteriorate performance of communication because of multi-path fading that occurs propagation delay by interior walls or other things in indoor environments. In this paper, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme is adapted to decrease multi-path fading and multi-path dispersion and to provide high speed data transmission. Besides, to reduce information losses caused by optical noise (incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps, sunbeam etc.) also proposed channel coding using turbo codes. The encoding and decoding of the proposed system is described, and simulation results are analyzed. We can know that performance of proposed system is increased about 4 [dB] through the simulation results. Also, when the system take doppler effect, the system performance worsened.
