New Bounds on Capacity Region of Multiple Access Channels in Visible Light Communications

In this paper, we propose new inner and outer bounds of the capacity region for multiple access channels in visible light communication (VLC) networks under both peak and average optical power constraints. Specifically, the proposed inner bounds are established by employing the single-user capacity...

description In this paper, we propose new inner and outer bounds of the capacity region for multiple access channels in visible light communication (VLC) networks under both peak and average optical power constraints. Specifically, the proposed inner bounds are established by employing the single-user capacity achieving input distribution for each user. The proposed outer bounds are derived by determining single-user capacities for each user and calculating a sum capacity upper bound by relaxing the input constraints. Numerical results show that the proposed new bounds are extremely tight and outperform existing bounds over wide ranges of SNRs.
