Poster: On-board camera video transmission over vehicular VLC

Abstract

Vehicular connectivity is envisaged to extend vehicle on-board camera videos to the nearby vehicles in order to increase drivers' road awareness. This paper demonstrates the possibilities of video transmission captured by vehicle on-board forward-looking camera via visible light communications (VLC) using taillights to provide see-beyond the front vehicle assistance. Line of sight (LoS) inter-vehicular video transmission using direct current biased optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DCO-OFDM) based VLC with the data rate of 6.42 Mbps and lower latency than 32 msec is validated through experiments.
