Adaptive Optimization of Diffuse Spot Intensities and Locations for Enhanced Performance in Indoor Visible-Light Optical Wireless Communications

Abstract

This study explores the application of JAYA optimization algorithms to significantly enhance the performance of indoor optical wireless communication (OWC) systems. By strategically optimizing photo-signal parameters, the system was able to improve signal distribution and reception within a confined space using circular and randomly positioned diffuse spots. The primary objective was to maximize signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and minimize delay spread (DS), two critical factors that affect transmission quality in OWC systems. Given the challenges posed by background noise and multipath dispersion, an effective optimization strategy was essential to ensure robust signal integrity at the receiver end. Key achievements of JAYA optimization include significant performance gains, such as a 29% improvement in SNR, enhancing signal clarity and reception, and a 23.3% reduction in delay spread, ensuring stable and efficient transmission. System stability also improved, with the standard deviation of SNR improving by up to 5%, leading to a more consistent performance, while the standard deviation of delay spread improved by up to 9.9%, minimizing variations across receivers. Resilience against environmental challenges: Optimization proved effective even in the presence of ambient light noise and complex multipath dispersion effects, reinforcing its adaptability in real-world applications. The findings of this study confirm that JAYA optimization algorithms offer a powerful solution for overcoming noise and dispersion issues in indoor OWC systems, leading to more reliable and high-quality optical wireless communications. These results underscore the importance of algorithmic precision in enhancing system performance, paving the way for further advancements in indoor optical networking technologies.
