2015 Proceeding- General Chairs:
- Chunyi Peng,
- Stefan Mangold
Today, it is our great pleasure to send a warm welcome to all participants of the 2015 ACM Workshop on Visible Light Communication Systems -- VLCS'15. This year's event is already the second VLCS workshop colocated with ACM MOBICOM. It continues the tradition of establishing one of the premier forums for leading edge resesarch in the exciting field of visible light communication. The VLCS workshop is a great opportunity to share novel research solutions that address the needs of current scientific and industrial trends in the field. We also hope that it will help attendees in identifying new directions for future research and development. VLCS'15 gives researchers and practitioners a unique opportunity to share their perspectives with other experts in the field.
We encourage participants to attend the keynote, the two exciting technical sessions, the invited talk presentation, the panel of experts, and finally the demo sessions at the end of the day! These valuable and insightful sessions will guide us to a better understanding of the future of visible light communication.

The Future of Wireless Light Communication
Networked visible light communications -also referred to as Li-Fi- are an exciting new field of development in communications. This talks looks at practical applications of Li-Fi and discusses its future. Li-Fi, promises quantum step improvements in ...
Linux Light Bulbs: Enabling Internet Protocol Connectivity for Light Bulb Networks
Modern light bulbs based on Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) can be used to create smart indoor environments: LED light bulbs provide a foundation for networking using visible light as communication medium. With Visible Light Communication (VLC), LED light ...
The Spy Next Door: Eavesdropping on High Throughput Visible Light Communications
Wireless networks based on visible light communication (VLC) are often considered to be resilient to eavesdropping by design, since light cannot penetrate most walls and objects. In this paper, we experimentally study the ability of a VLC eavesdropper ...
Joint Illumination-Communication Optimization in Visible Light Communication
One major characteristic of visible light communication (VLC) is its two-fold functionality of illumination and communication. Therefore, this paper considers joint optimization of illumination-communication in an indoor VLC system where light-emitting ...
A Multi-Element VLC Architecture for High Spatial Reuse
Visible light communication (VLC) is an emerging wireless technology that offers more capacity than legacy radio frequency (RF) communications can offer. Free-space-optical (FSO) communication is VLC's general form spanning infrared bands, and it has an ...
On Limited Feedback Resource Allocation for Visible Light Communication Networks
Resource allocation in visible light communication (VLC) networks is crucial to maximize throughput and achieve fairness among users. While resource allocation can be enhanced significantly using the feedback information of users, increasing feedback ...
LiBeamScanner: Accurate Indoor Positioning with Sweeping Light Beam
This paper proposes LiBeamScanner, an indoor positioning system that utilizes only a single custom light bulb and a light sensor to achieve extremely high positioning accuracy. Single light bulb means that a dense deployment of illuminaries is ...
Visible Light Knows Who You Are
We examine the feasibility of human identification using purely the ubiquitous visible light. Empowered by the Visible Light Communication (VLC), the identification system consists of VLC-enabled LED lights on the ceiling emitting light beacons, and ...
