NANOENERGY2013 ( pp.58-59 ) page： - 2013.7

Language：English

Stochastic Resonance (SR), known as a noise-enhanced phenomenon, can improve the performance of communication systems. By applying SR in the receiver, it is possible to detect a weak signal that is not detectable in the traditional linear receiver. In the SR systems, the input of multi-carrier has not ever been discussed. So this paper proposes the SR receiver for multi-carrier detection and evaluates its Bit-Error-Rate (BER) performance.

This paper focuses on a road-to-vehicle visible light communication (VLC) system using LED traffic light as the transmitter and camera as the receiver. The traffic light is composed of a hundred of LEDs on two dimensional plain. In this system, data is sent as two dimensional brightness patterns by controlling each LED of the traffic light individually, and they are received as images by the camera. Here, there are problems that neighboring LEDs on the received image are merged due to less number of pixels in case that the receiver is distant from the transmitter, and/or due to blurring by defocus of the camera. Because of that, bit error rate (BER) increases due to recognition error of intensity of LEDs To solve the problem, we propose a method that estimates the intensity of LEDs by solving the inverse problem of communication channel characteristic from the transmitter to the receiver. The proposed method is evaluated by BER characteristics which are obtained by computer simulation and experiments. In the result, the proposed method can estimate with better accuracy than the conventional methods, especially in case that the received image is blurred a lot, and the number of pixels is small. © (2013) COPYRIGHT Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).

Performance Analysis of Error-Correcting Method Using Separation of Chaos for Noncoherent Chaos Communications Reviewed

S. Arai, Y. Nishio and T. Yamazato

Proceedings of RISP International Workshop on Nonlinear Circuits, Communications and Signal Processing (NCSP'13) page： pp. 225-228 2013.3

Language：English

This paper analyzes the performance of the error-correcting method, which was proposed in the previous research, using the separation and the reconstruction of chaos for noncoherent chaos communications. Especially, we focus on a number of transmitting data and a combination of symbols (i.e., data pattern). We consider that the capability of the error correction depends on the number of data and the data pattern because the proposed method performs the error correction using successive data symbols. This study performs simulations for the number of data and the data pattern, and evaluates BER performance of the proposed method.

Language：Japanese

We consider an application of Stochastic Resonance to wireless communication system. Stochastic Resonance(SR) is well known as a phenomenon in which weak signal in nonlinear system can be detected by added noise. A receiver using Stochastic Resonance(SR Receiver) can detect a weak signal which is not detectable in the conventional receiver. In this paper, we consider the implementation of Bi-Polar Pulse SR Receiver using Schmitt Trigger and the evaluation of the performance in Signal-to-Noise Ratio(SNR) and Bit Error Rate(BER).

Language：Japanese

Stochastic resonance has an effect of improving the detection by increasing noise in the system. By applying this stochastic resonance in the receiver, it is possible to detect the subthreshold signal which is not detectable in the traditional linear receiver. This paper proposes an analysis method of the stochastic resonance receiver for the detection of the bi-polar pulse, which has good compatibility to stochastic resonance, and evaluates its bit-error-rate performance. And, the optimal noise power which maximizes the effect of stochastic resonance is discussed.

Interpixel Interference Cancellation Method for Road-to-Vehicle Visible Light Communication Reviewed

2013 IEEE 5TH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON WIRELESS VEHICULAR COMMUNICATIONS (WIVEC) page： 1 - 5 2013

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (international conference proceedings) Publisher：IEEE

This paper aims to improve the transmission distance for the road-to-vehicle visible light communication system (R2V-VLC) using LED array and high-speed camera by reducing interference caused at the receiver. As we can transmit multiple data using LED array and high-speed camera, parallel data transmission can be possible. However, due to the diffusion of LED and the finiteness of the pixel size of image sensor, the focused LED will affect not only the actual corresponding pixel but also its surrounding pixels. We call this phenomenon as "interpixel interference (IPI)" and it causes degradation in error rate performance. To mitigate the IPI, we propose IPI cancellation scheme for the R2V-VLC system. As the results of the experiment, we can extend the error-free distance from 40m to 60m by the IPI cancellation.

Channel information estimation for error correcting code in road-to-vehicle visible light communication systems Reviewed

Hiraku Okada, Shinnosuke Misawa, Takaya Yamazato, Toshiaki Fujii, Tomohiro Yendo

2013 IEEE 5th International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications, WiVeC 2013 - Proceedings page： 1 - 5 2013

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (international conference proceedings) Publisher：IEEE Computer Society

This paper focuses on a road-to-vehicle visible light communication (VLC) system using LED traffic lights and high-speed cameras on cars. So as to improve the transmission reliability, an error correcting code like a low-density parity-check (LDPC) is applied to the road-to-vehicle VLC system. The decoder of the LDPC code needs channel information in order to maximize decoding performance. Usually, it is calculated from a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) or bit error rate (BER) of a channel, where noise is a dominant factor of the channel characteristic. In the road-to-vehicle VLC system, not noise but interference among LEDs decides the channel characteristic. In this paper, we propose a channel information estimation method for the road-to-vehicle VLC system. The proposed method estimates a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) from the receiving image, and calculates the channel information using the SIR. The proposed method is evaluated by experiment. As a result, the proposed method can achieve almost the same performance with the optimum case, and then maximize the decoding performance. © 2013 IEEE.

20th ITS World Congress Tokyo 2013 2013

Language：Japanese Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal) Publisher：20th ITS World Congress Tokyo 2013

In this paper, we focus on a distance estimation scheme using camera. Our distance estimation scheme is based on triangulation. The accuracy of camera based scheme is governed by resolution of a camera, or equivalently the size of pixel. Therefore we introduce phase only correlation (POC) to estimate with subpixel accuracy. As a result of experiment, we will show that our scheme achieves less than 0.3m estimation error at the distance of 60m. By using POC, the resolution of estimation reaches nearly 0.02 pixel, much less than one pixel.

Alamouti-Type Coding for Visible Light Communication Based on Direct Detection Using Image Sensor Reviewed

Yuta Amano, Koji Kamakura, Takaya Yamazato

2013 IEEE GLOBAL COMMUNICATIONS CONFERENCE (GLOBECOM) page： 2430 - 2435 2013

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (international conference proceedings) Publisher：IEEE

This paper proposes Alamouti-type space time (ST) coding to visible light communication (VLC) using light emitting diodes (LEDs) and image sensor-based direct detection with a high-speed camera. Although multiple LEDs of an array are used as transmitters to communicate to individual pixel elements of an image sensor which act as multiple receive elements, the received signal is essentially the image of the transmitting element, whose size in pixel reduces with distance. When the receiver captures the LED array at a distance where images of two neighboring LEDs in the array are not separated at the image plane, such distortion depreciates the symbol decision quality. Our proposed scheme aims at expanding the communication range limited by the pixel resolution of image sensor. Our implemented prototype demonstrates that ST coding is feasible to achieve 48-meter error-free transmission range while the repetition transmission achieves 26-m error-free range.
