RESUMO
Recently, visible light communication (VLC) has become a promising technology for reliable communication in the industrial Internet of Things. In VLC, light sources with non-uniform parameters make uncontrollable signal blind zones and aliases. The unknown parameters also lead to the problem of channel estimation. Hence, deep coverage of VLC is challenging. In this paper, we design a dual-sensor elongated receiver. The receiver expands the signal receiving area by increasing the distance between photon detectors and realizes aliased signal recovery without channel estimation. Cooperatively, an adaptive blind receiving scheme is proposed. The scheme separates aliased signals by parameter estimation of a Gaussian mixture model without knowing transmitter parameters. It unifies the aliased and blind receiving cases by an adaptive signal combining method. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate that our scheme achieves better reliability and deeper communication coverage in the given system.
