An Importance Sampling Method for Monte-Carlo Integration Model for Ultraviolet Communication

Abstract

This paper improves the Monte-Carlo integration model for multiple scattering channel of ultraviolet communication. An importance sampling method is introduced to improve the convergence speed of the original Monte-Carlo integration model. We compare the convergence speed and calculation speed of the proposed Monte-Carlo integration model based on importance sampling, the original Monte-Carlo integration model based on uniform sampling and a widely used Monte-Carlo simulation model. Simulation results show that the computation efficiency of the proposed model is about 9.6 times of the original Monte-Carlo integration model and is about 4.35 times of the Monte-Carlo simulation model.
