Digital data transmission via Visible Light Communication (VLC): Application to vehicle to vehicle communication

In this article, we present an implementation of the new digital communication, technology that uses visible light, known as LIFI (Light Fidelity) or VLC (Visual Light Communication), and apply it for inter-vehicle communication. This communication may improve driver's safety by allowing the vehicles to communicate easily with each other (V2V communication). The first prototype of an unidirectional VLC communication was developed at the laboratory of signals and images (LSI) of USTO-MB. The experimental results are more than satisfactory.
