OCC Protocol for connected LEDs in Optical Camera Communication Networks

Abstract

Nowadays, and Internet of Lights (IoL) can be used to help a variety of lights in home, building, factory, city, and so on. The achievement of wireless communication technologies have brought convenience and amazing services to users. The hybrid use of wireless technologies in a system is not a novel idea, however, in this paper, we introduce the feasible OCC protocol based on Wi-Fi technology and OCC technology that is emerging technology nowadays. Various type of LEDs that implemented based on OCC technologies are connected via an MQTT (Message Queue Telemetry Transportation) broker to bring a promising service of light that allows smartphone users to receiving, control and monitoring data with augmented reality user experience. Demonstrations of the system along with implemented software and hardware are given to illustrate the feasibility of our system.
