| Abstract | The separating distance between the transceivers is one of the main factors that affect the quality of the received optical signal as the receiver changes locations in an optical wireless (OW) system. A beam clustering method was proposed to improve the indoor OW channel's performance by combating the degrading effects of multipath reflections. The method involved transmitting binary data bits over two other clusters of beams aimed at walls in addition to the one aimed at the ceiling. In this work, we investigate a novel approach to further improve the signal quality on reception using a proposed adaptive transmitter composed of three spot diffusing sub-transmitters aimed at the same three directions as in the beam clustering method. The receiver communicates with the transmitter and sends tap weights (for transmit powers) to be used by the sub-transmitters which optimises the signal reception based on the initial received pulses at different locations. Performance comparison with results of a non adaptive transmitter system is presented in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), delay spread (DS) and path loss distributions for two receiver types: 1) a single detector wide field-of-view (FOV) receiver and 2) a multi-detector angle diversity receiver. Our results show a significant improvement achieved with an SNR gain of 18 dB compared with the conventional diffuse system and a 6 dB SNR gain without transmitter adaptability. Therefore, at the expense of moderate computations, the use of an adaptive multi-beam clustering transmitter is promising and can enhance the optical signal reception to suit user mobility requirements. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
