Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Progress in Optical Wireless Communications - VLC and FSO Technologies, Applications and Markets" report to their offering.
In connection with VLC developments, the report addresses Light Emitting Diode (LED) technologies and markets. LED, in the near future, will be a dominate source of illumination; and used also as a transmitting device. The VLC LED-based channels promise to deliver high-speed data in office, home and other environments with high signal-to-noise ratio, and minimum infrastructure expenses.
In particular, the report concentrates on:
- VLC - Visible Light Communication
- FSF - Free Space Fiber.
The report analyzes the emerging VLC industry, economics, technologies, standardization and applications. It shows that the spectrum of VLC applications is increasing with each year to support such developments as Intelligent Transportation Systems, Localization amongst others.
FSF devices are solving access issues in metro and LAN environments; they are also used in other applications. They are relatively inexpensive, support Gb/s rates of transmission, offering low maintenance costs and guarantee a short installation time and security of communications. This report presents Free Space Fiber technologies and includes a market analysis. It also discusses their applications together with a survey of vendors and their portfolios.
