Welcome to VLCsim’s documentation!

VLCSim is an Event-Oriented simulator package for Visible Light Communication.

Note

This project is under active development.

Features

• Dynamic Environment with in/out connections

• Flexible resource allocation algorithm

• Flexible VLC/room parameters

Events

The simulator has 5 Type of events:

• ARRIVE: Every time when a connection arrives to the system

• RESUME: When a connection begin the transmission

• PAUSE: When a Connection PAUSES the transmission

• DEPARTURE: When a connectin ends its transmission

• RETRYING: WHen a connection is not allocated, and uses a WAIT status, it makes a new attepmt to connect.
