Light fidelity (LiFi) is a potential key technology for future 6G networks. However, its feasibility of supporting mobile communications has not been fundamentally discussed. In this paper, we investigate the time-varying channel characteristics of mobile LiFi based on measured mobile phone rotation and movement data. Specifically, we define LiFi channel coherence time to evaluate the correlation of the channel timing sequence. Then, we derive the expression of LiFi transmission rate based on the m-pulse-amplitude-modulation (M-PAM). The derived rate expression indicates that mobile LiFi communications is feasible by using at least two photodiodes (PDs) with different orientations. Further, we propose two channel estimation schemes, and propose a LiFi channel tracking scheme to improve the communication performance. Finally, our experimental results show that the channel coherence time is on the order of tens of milliseconds, which indicates a relatively stable channel. In addition, based on the measured data, better communication performance can be realized in the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scenario with a rate of 36Mbit/s, compared to other scenarios. The results also show that the proposed channel estimation and tracking schemes are effective in designing mobile LiFi systems. |
