Abstract

An energy-efficient indoor visible light communication (VLC) system relying on dynamic user-centric (UC) cluster formation is designed for scalable video streaming. Explicitly, the radically new UC cluster formation technique is based on an amorphous user-to-network association structure, which is ultimately the basis of our energy-efficient indoor VLC system. Furthermore, in order to optimize the system-level energy efficiency, our objective function is selected by jointly considering both the video quality and the power consumption. We then propose a three-tier dynamic-programming-based algorithm for user/layer-level adaptive modulation mode assignment, for access-point-level power allocation and for cluster-level energy efficiency optimization, respectively. Based on a scalable video coded sequence, our simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of our UC clusters compared to the conventional cell design in terms of its energy efficiency, throughput, as well as video quality in most of the scenarios considered.
