Hybrid NOMA and ZF Pre-Coding Transmission for Multi-Cell VLC Networks
Abstract
Though visible-light communication (VLC) channels are contained by opaque boundaries, they present unique challenges in the development of multi-user/multi-cell scenarios. In this paper, two hybrid transmission schemes are proposed for managing multiple users in multi-cell VLC networks. The proposed schemes are based on using non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) in the network access points (APs), while applying zero-forcing (ZF) pre-coding to …
