Analysis of the impact of misaligned wireless backhaul links on optical Attocell networks

Wireless solutions based on visible light communication (VLC) have been proposed for backhaul transmission in optical attocell networks. Perfect alignment of auxiliary transceivers is important for wireless backhaul links due to the requirement of direct line-of-sight (LOS) and the first-bounce specular reflection of mirror-aided non-LOS. However, the perfect alignment may not be guaranteed due to the limitation of the layout of BSs or installation mistakes. In this article, we investigate the impact of misalignment on the overall network performance. Two VLC backhaul link configurations have been considered and compared. Performance of using different frequency reuse schemes and channel allocation schemes are compared.
