Device and mechanism for automatic VLC-lamp selection
Abstract:
The invention relates to a communication device comprising a docking station and a central processing unit.
The docking station comprises a plurality of photoreceptors and a plurality of light sources interjacent with the photoreceptors.
The plurality of photoreceptors and the plurality of light sources are suitable for visible light communication (VLC).
The central processing unit is configured for obtaining an initialization signal, selecting a portion of the plurality of light sources of the docking station, ordering an emission of a pairing signal, obtaining a response signal, and ordering a pairing of the terminal with a portion of the plurality of photoreceptors of the docking station and with a portion of the plurality of light sources of the docking station.
