Ever since ancient times, people continuously have devised new techniques and
technologies for communicating their ideas, needs, and desires to others. Thus,
many forms of increasingly complex communication systems have appeared
over the years. The basic motivations behind each new one were to improve the
transmission fidelity so that fewer errors occur in the received message, to
increase the transmission capacity of a communication link so that more infor-
mation could be sent, or to increase the transmission distance between relay sta-
tions so that messages can be sent farther without the need to restore the signal
fidelity periodically along its path.
Visible light communications (VLC) is the name given to an OPTICAL wireless
communication system that carries information by modulating light in the visible spectrum
(400–700 nm) that is principally used for illumination [1–3]. The communications signal
is encoded on top of the illumination light. Interest in VLC has grown rapidly with the
growth of high power light emitting diodes (LEDs) in the visible spectrum. The
motivation to use the illumination light for communication is to save energy by exploiting
the illumination to carry information and, at the same time, to use technology that is
“green” in comparison to radio frequency (RF) technology, while using the existing
infrastructure of the lighting system.
Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) refers to a multiplexing and transmission
scheme in OPTICAL telecommunications fibers where different wavelengths, typically
emitted by several lasers, are modulated independently (i.e., they carry independent
information from the transmitters to the receivers). These wavelengths are then
multiplexed in the transmitter by means of passive WDM filters, and likewise they
are separated or demultiplexed in the receiver by means of the same filters or
coherent detection that usually involves a tunable local oscillator (laser).
Wireless networking is undergoing a transformation from what has
been primarily a medium for supporting voice traffic between telephones,
into what is increasingly becoming a medium for supporting traffic among
a variety of digital devices transmitting media of many types (voice,
data, images, video. etc.) Wireline networking underwent a similar
transformation in the 1990s, which led to an enormous build-up in the
capacity of such networks, primarily through the addition of new OPTICAL
fiber, switches and other infrastructure.
Identification is pervasive nowadays in daily life due to many complicated activities such as
bank and library card reading, asset tracking, toll collecting, restricted access to sensitive data
and procedures and target identification. This kind of task can be realized by passwords, bio-
metric data such as fingerprints, barcode, OPTICAL character recognition, smart cards and radar.
Radiofrequencyidentification(RFID)isatechniquetoidentifyobjectsbyusingradiosystems.
It is a contactless, usually short distance, wireless data transmission and reception technique
for identification of objects. An RFID system consists of two components: the tag (also called
transponder) and the reader (also called interrogator).
