Performance Analysis of Optical Wireless Channel Based on Beamforming Techniques Using Advanced Modulation Schemes by Lwaa Faisal Abdulameer, Adil Fadhil Mushatet, Tania Tariq Salim

“…An arbitrary number of light-emitting diodes and photo-detectors are used at the sources and detectors. The findings demonstrated that the optical generalized frequency-division multiplexing performs better than other modulation schemes in terms of power and bandwidth requirements, with a high peak-to-average-power-ratio, which is the primary drawback in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing mitigated by the beamforming function. …”
