Data confidence 70 medium

How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) uplink transmission scheme for optical wireless communication applications. The transmission is based on optical single-carrier frequency domain equalization (SC-FDE) due to its low complexity where the signal is transmitted over infrared communication channels. Based on non-sequential ray tracing, we first obtained realistic infrared MIMO channel impulse responses including low-pass filter effect of infrared light-emitting-diodes. We then investigate the performance of bit-error-rate (BER) and peak to average power ratio (PAPR) with respect to different modulation orders using spatial multiplexing.
