Research on Resource Allocation Strategy of Indoor Visible Light Communication and Radio Frequency Systems Integrating Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access Technology

Aiming at the problem of resource allocation strategies limiting the system transmission rate in indoor visible light communication and radio frequency (VLC/RF) systems, a new resource allocation method is proposed, and orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) technology is introduced. The capacity of the communication system is effectively increased. In the VLC/RF system model based on OFDMA, the Lyapunov optimization method is used to transform the time averaging problem into a series of single-slot online problems to reduce its computational complexity, the optimization problem is decomposed into three independent subproblems, and the Lagrange relaxation method and convex optimization theory are used to solve the subproblems to maximize the average transmission rate of the system, and the Lyapunov drift is used to ensure the stability of the system. Simulation verifies that the Lyapunov optimization algorithm does not require iteration, which improves the optimization speed to a high extent. The simulation results show that the proposed resource allocation strategy effectively balances the system queue length and transmission rate, improves the average transmission rate of the system to the greatest extent under the premise of ensuring the stability of the system, and compares with other algorithms from the aspects of system stability and transmission rate, which proves the effectiveness of the Lyapunov optimization algorithm.
