Implementation of Speech Simplex Communication Using Visible Light Implementation of Speech Simplex Communication using Visible Light Lita Lidyawati Lucia Jambola Electrical Engineering Electrical Engineering National Institute of Technology National Institute of Technology Bandung, Indonesia Bandung, Indonesia [email protected] [email protected] Arsyad Ramadhan Darlis Electrical Engineering National Institute of Technology Bandung, Indonesia [email protected] Abstract—The visible light used by many humans as lighting wavelength. Therefore, if the infrared can be used in data only. However, in some studies have been shown that visible light communication, the same thing is likely to do with using can be used also for other needs that the communication system. visible light. Visible Light Communication (VLC) using white Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a promising technology for next generation communication for short range and high speed wireless transmission. In this paper, implementation of speech simplex communication using visible light is presented. Speech simplex communication using visible light needed in area where communication cannot be done easily using a technology that uses electromagnetic waves. Inexpensive transmitter and receiver of VLC system is designed and its performance is evaluated. Performance analysis is done with respect to color filter, photo sensitivity of photodiode at the receiver and the increase in distance between the transmitter and receiver. The result shows the system can receiving signal in speech frequency between 300 Hz until 3400 Hz. Test by transmitting the signal at a fixed distance results the voltage of the signal has increased almost two times that of the input signal, with the strengthening of 1.66 times. Experimental results show that the data transmission Fig. 1.

This is due to human voltage received relatively good compared with most other colors. beings will not be able to work and live without their lights so that mobility and very high levels of efficiency. The Keywords— visible light communication, light emitting diode, technology utilizes visible light in a communication system photodiode, color filter pair called Visible Light Communication (VLC). I. INTRODUCTION VLC is standaridized by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) [5]. Visible Light Visible light is electromagnetic radiation that is visible to Communication Consortium, Japan carried out an initial the normal human eye with a wavelength of 380 to 780 nm. research on Visible Light Communication. Now Asia, Europe, Infrared is electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer Wireless World Research Forum are also working in VLC than visible light, but shorter than radio wave radiation. This research. infrared has a wavelength between 1 µm to 700 mm. This technology will be very useful to remember that in Visible light produced by lighting lamps have the same place - a particular place, communication cannot be done easily properties as the infrared. Today, the visible light used by using a technology that uses electromagnetic waves, for humans for lighting, both indoors and outdoors. This is due to example in water, tunnel or in a place that cannot receive both an electromagnetic radiation, just has a different electromagnetic waves (blank spot). In addition, in these places, conversation (speech) between people simultaneously (full duplex) using cellular technology cannot do. Full Duplex communication system is a form of communication between two parties which transmit and receive information at the same time. In this paper, we are only examining speech simplex communication using Visible Light Communication. II. SYSTEM DESIGN OF SPEECH SIMPLEX COMMUNICATION USING VISIBLE LIGHT COMMUNICATION VLC system consists of: (a) transmitter using white LEDs as a light source, (b) free space (air) as the transmission medium, and (c) photodiode at the receivers. VLC communication has the advantages of bandwidth, low power consumption, visibility, free from Electro Magnetic Interference and radiation hazards.

Meanwhile, if the frequency conversation (speech) has a magnitude of 300 up to 3400 Hz, so if the first test is to have good results, it means that the sound signal in the form of a conversation (speech) has a good performance. From the test results are obtained that signals can be passed to the system at a frequency of 20 Hz to 20000 Hz with the average gain was 1.41 times. This can be interpreted speech signal (300 - 3400 Hz) can be passed using this system as well. Fig.7. System Testing Condition B.

This test is similar to the first test, but shift of 180 degrees of the input signal (top). This is caused by with a changing distance until the signal cannot be received the influence of the channel transmission system is used. The by the Rx on a system that has been implemented. The results phase shift can be addressed by a series of phase shifter (phase of these tests can be seen in Fig. 11 below: shifter) to restore the output signal to a form which should be the same as the input signal. Nevertheless, designed and implemented a system that has worked well as evidenced by the frequency of the input signal is the same as the frequency of the output signal of the system. The voltage of the signal has increased almost two times that of the input signal, with the strengthening of 1.66 time where the sample images shown in Fig. 8. The strengthening of each signal is different in each measurement and the frequency of the input signal. This is caused by environmental and measurement conditions change at any time. Results of tests performed on the system by making the input signal has a changing frequency is shown in Fig. 9. Fig. 11. Comparison chart system based on the output changing voltage range The greater the distance between the light source or LED with receiver circuit voltage reduction occurs this proves that the greater the distance, the smaller the signal received by a receiver capable. The maximum distance that has been able to be tested by the system is 2.3 m. Distance is limited due to the need to carry on a conversation between two people about less than 2 meters. Therefore, testing is only done at a distance only. C. Tests by transmitting a signal that is using a color filter (Red to color) Fig. 9.

    Application Note: AN-2306-2 ACU-M™ Improving In-Building Communications Purpose This application note will describe methods in which the Raytheon’s ACU-M can be used to improve in-building communications. The application note will discuss permanent and temporary methods at which different devices can help increase the ability to transmit or receive land mobile radio communications from within a building, below-grade, or behind obstructions. Introduction Land mobile radios, whether used in vehicles or as handheld portables, are an important tool used everyday by first responders to make their jobs safer and more efficient. In the most part, these radio systems function as designed, and serve the end-user with reliable communications. However, when the duties of a first responder require them to enter a building, or operate below- grade during emergencies, the ability of their radios to communicate to the base, incident command or dispatcher may become an issue. One physical constraint of land mobile radio communications is its inability to transmit and receive radio waves through obstructions such as buildings or below-grade structures. The failure of a land mobile radio to transmit and receive communications from within a building or below-grade has cursed radio users since the beginning of land mobile radio communications (see Figure 1).

  • The Benefits of Computer Networks
    قسم علوم الحاسوب | المرحلة الرابعة كلية الرافدين الجامعة د.اسيل خالد Introduction to Computer Network: Interconnected collection of autonomous computers. Tow computers are side to be interconnection if they are able to exchange information. Or: network is simply a collection of intercommunicating computers and peripherals possibly having access to remote hosts and other computer networks. A network consists of a set of computers: hosts, connected via a communication subnet. The word 'host' refers to an individual computer connected to the network, which can communicate with other hosts via the network. A Compute network should ensure: reliability of the data communication process security of the data performance by achieving higher throughput and smaller delay times The benefits of computer networks: We can summarize the benefits of computer networks as follow: 1. Resource sharing: the goal is to make all programs, equipment, and especially data available to anyone on the network without regard to physical location of the resource and the user. 2. High reliability: by having alternative sources of supply .for example, all files could be replicated on two or three machines, so if one of them is unavailable (due to a hardware failure. قسم علوم الحاسوب | المرحلة الرابعة كلية الرافدين الجامعة د.اسيل خالد 3. Saving money: small computers have a Mach better price/performance ratio than large ones. Mainframes (room-size computers) are roughly a factor of ten faster than personal computers, but they cost a thousand times more. 4. Scalability: is the ability to increase system performance gradually as the workload grows just by adding more processors. 5.

  • Boat Crew Seamanship Manual, Chapter 11
    BOAT CREW SEAMANSHIP MANUAL “Train, Maintain, Operate” COMDTINST M16114.5C September 2003 Boat Crew Seamanship Manual Chapter 11 Communications Introduction Communication between mariners has long been recognized as a necessity. Using the radio proficiently and knowing proper radio protocol reflects well upon the boat crew’s and the radio operator’s professionalism. It is essential that each boat crewmember is completely aware of the common distress signals and how they are used in emergencies. This chapter will provide basic knowledge of voice communication conventions, procedures, and the various distress signals. Most marine communications are done by using voice radio transmissions. These are very much like two people talking on the telephone, but with significant differences that boat crewmembers must understand. Typically, voice radio communications are “simplex,” or one way at a time - when one person is speaking, the second person must wait. This differs from face-to-face and telephone conversations where voices may overlap. Simplex communication is the reason for many of the procedural regulations for voice radio communications. For additional information on Coast Guard communications, refer to the Telecommunications Manual NOTE (TCM), COMDTINST M2000.3 (series). All operators should check all of their radio equipment for proper operation before getting underway NOTE and immediately report any malfunctions. In this chapter This chapter contains the following sections: Section Title See Page A Radio Signal Characteristics 11-2 B Prowords and Common Abbreviations 11-6 C Verbal Communications 11-7 D Radio Operating Procedures 11-10 E Communicating Between Coast Guard Facilities 11-11 F Emergency Voice Communications and Distress Signals 11-15 G Radio Checks 11-22 H Rescue 21 11-23 11-1 Boat Crew Seamanship Manual Section A.

Switching System ➢ References ➢ Exercise 1.1 CONCEPT Telecommunication networks carry information from one place to another situated at a certain distance apart. The word ‘tele’ means distant and ‘communication’ is the process of exchanging feelings and ideas. Grossly, telecommunication can be of two types depending upon the transmission channel placed between the sender of information and the receiver of information. If the channel is a free space or air, the communication is named as Radio wave telecommunication and if the said channel is transmission line or cable, the communication is Line Communication. In telephone communication, the person who originates a call is referred to as the calling subscriber and the person for whom the call is originated is known as the called subscriber or called-for subscriber. In some cases like computer communication and to some extent in telephone communication, the communicating bodies or entities are also known as source (one who transmits a signal) and destination (one who receives a signal). The main idea behind modern telecommunication is to allow anybody in any part of the world to be able to communicate with anybody in any part of the world. The first technological development in the field of telecommunication was the transmission of telegraphic signals over wire. In March 1876, Alexander Graham Bell invented telephone and demonstrated it. It was basically a point-to-point connection. His discovery laid the foundation for telephone communication.
