Indoor Infrared Optical Wireless Communications

<p>This book aims to give an overview of recent developments in indoor near-infrared optical wireless communication technologies and systems including basic theories operating fundamentals system architectures modelling experimental demonstrations advanced techniques and most recently the research efforts towards integrations. Both line-of-sight and diffusive-signals-based options will be reviewed to provide readers a complete picture about this rapidly developing area which targets the provision of high-speed wireless connectivity to end- users in indoor environments such as offices homes and shopping centres to satisfy the growing high-speed communication requirement.</p><ul> <p> </p> <li>Provides a systematic approach for the fundamentals of indoor optical wireless communications. </li> <p> </p> <li>Provides an overview of recent developments in indoor infrared optical wireless communications including theoretical fundamentals. </li> <p> </p> <li>Examines system architectures modelling experimental demonstrations and the research efforts towards integrations.</li> </ul><p>Dr. Ke Wang is an Australian Research Council (ARC) DECRA Fellow and a senior lecturer in the School of Engineering Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT University) VIC Australia.
