Reed Solomon and Convolutional Code are chosen for IEEE 802.15.7-2011 and IEEE 802.15.7m implementation. In this post, we will review the generation of the codes and simulate their performance for comparison. Reed Solomon Systematic RS codes are used for FEC (typically outer FEC) with GF(16), generated by the polynomial x4+x+1. The generators for the RS(n, … Continue reading FEC: Generation of Reed-Solomon and Convolutional Code

A comparison between OCC standardization groups within IEEE 802.15
This post briefly reviews the current status of standardization groups within IEEE 802.15 There are IEEE standards covering the optical spectrum, IEEE 802.15.7-2011 std., known as VLCIEEE 802.15.7m std., (publication in 2018, as expected), including OCC modesIEEE 802.15.13 std., (ongoing), adding LiFi (IEEE 802.15.7-2011 std. is also the base document as IEEE 802.15.7m)IEEE 802.11, introducing LiFi to 802.11IEEE 802.15 … Continue reading A comparison between OCC standardization groups within IEEE 802.15
PHY modes within IEEE 802.15.7m draft – a quick review
PHY operating modes The latest IEEE 802.15.7m draft standard (until Aug. 2018) is on the Sponsor Balloting recirculation. This version has updated a lot in compared to the previous version before LiFi modes are moved to new task group under IEEE 802.15. A list of operating modes between two drafts is a good start. Notation … Continue reading PHY modes within IEEE 802.15.7m draft – a quick review
