Flexible NOMA-based NOHO-OFDM scheme for visible light communication with iterative interference cancellation
Abstract:
In this paper, a flexible non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) based optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation scheme, called non-orthogonal hybrid optical OFDM (NOHO-OFDM), is proposed to increase the achievable data rate of the visible light communication system with high efficiency. In addition, a receiver with iteratively successive interference cancellation (ISIC) is investigated, which can reduce the estimation error. Then, the achievable data rate of the proposed NOHO-OFDM with the ISIC scheme is analyzed. Experiment results show that the bit error rate of the NOHO-OFDM can be significantly reduced by the proposed ISIC scheme, and the NOHO-OFDM is superior than the orthogonal scheme in terms of data rates. Meanwhile, simulation results show that the achievable data rate region of the proposed NOHO-OFDM scheme is larger than that of the orthogonal counterpart.

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...
