“…The advantage of using the preinstalled infrastructures of the power line networks for the PLCs and the LEDs for the VLCs makes the hybrid PLC/VLC system an attractive and cost‐effective system. In the cooperative PLC/VLC system, the PLC is utilized as a backbone for the VLC which in turns transforms the electrical signal into an optical signal then deliver it to the users 110 . This hybrid system was first presented and discussed in Reference 111.…”

Modern railway services are required to deliver good quality services to the passenger throughout the whole journey. These include improved performances, safety, and reduce delays. There is also the requirement for in‐train customer experience such as infotainment and access to reliable communication systems. The railway industry has employed different types and generations of communication systems in recent times. Signaling systems were used at the early stage of the railway services. Today, communication systems such as the second‐generation communication system, also known as the global system for mobile communications (GSM), the Third‐generation (3G) and the Fourth‐generation (4G) are utilized in the railway industry. In this paper, we present a brief history of railway communication systems, their features and applications. In addition, we discuss the technical challenges and potential solutions of in‐train communication systems and how data can be distributed on‐board and between the train coaches using state of the art and hybrid communication technologies.

“…The channel in PLC is as follow [169]- [171]: 0 where ηLOS,t and η DIFF are the channel gains for the LOS and diffuse signal, respectively, ΔτLOS,t and ΔτDIFF are the corresponding signal delays of LOS and diffuse portions, respectively, and m0 is the cut-off (3-dB) frequency of the purely diffuse channel.…”

When the distance between the source and the target is long, the signal will be affected by atmospheric turbulence, weather conditions and obstacles, which cannot support the information transmission. One of the existing solutions is to use relay-assisted technology (RAT). It makes the communications between the source and the destination possible under better channel conditions by setting up relay between the source and the destination. There are few comprehensive articles about relay-assisted technology in OWC. To fill this gap, this paper introduces the RAT of indoor optical wireless communications (IOWC), outdoor optical wireless communications (OOWC) and underwater optical wireless communications (UOWC) in different application scenarios, which has a better effect than direct communication between source and destination. The relay protocols, channel models, modulation techniques under three relay modes are reviewed. Finally, challenges of RAT in OWC are put forward and potential solutions are also given.

“…Also in 2018, Nlom et al reported on channel frequency measurement of a hybrid system combining Power Line Communication (PLC) technology and VLC. The measured results provide an overall characterization, model and spectral analysis of the hybrid PLC-VLC channel [15]. In another 2018 study, Eroglu et al proposed various solutions to group LEDs according to the received signal strength of each LED and assign them to the user to achieve maximum throughput, proportional fairness and quality of service.…”

<p>Visible Light Communication is a communication method that transmits data through light by pulsing an LED at high speed, performing broadcast communication for all devices existing in its coverage. Broadcast-based Visible Light Communication is limited to application to Internet of Things services, where various applications exist, although all receivers can communicate within the range of light sources. Therefore, this paper proposes an LED based Visible Light Communication system for multicast. The proposed system performs individual multicast by participating in communication only with receivers configured to use a specified ID value input at the transmitting side during data transmission. Experimental results show that the receiver can receive files individually according to a specified ID value.</p>
