Phase-Aligned Physical-Layer Network Coding in Visible Light Communications

Deploying relay nodes in visible light communication (VLC) relieves the requirement of line-of-sight transmission and thus extends the service coverage of VLC systems. In this paper, we propose to employ physical-layer network coding (PNC) in the VLC system to increase its throughput by boosting the...
