dc.description.abstractIncreasing interest in indoor navigation has recently been generated by devices with wireless communication capabilities that enabled a wide range of applications and services. The rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the inherent end-to end connectivity of billions of devices is very attractive for indoor localization and proximity detection. Other fields, such as, marketing and customer assistance, health services, asset management and tracking, can also benefit from indoor localization. Different techniques and wireless technologies have been proposed for indoor location, as the traditional Global Positioning System (GPS) has a very poor, unreliable performance in a closed space. The work presented in this research proposes the use of an indoor localization system based on Visible Light Communication (VLC) to support the navigation and operational tasks of Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AVG) in an automated warehouse. The research is mainly focused on the development of the navigation VLC system, transmission of control data information and decoding techniques. As part of the communication system, trichromatic white LEDs are used as emitters and a-SiC:H/a-Si:H based photodiodes with selective spectral sensitivity, are used as receivers. Through the modulation of the RGB LEDs, the downlink channel establishes an infrastructure-to-vehicle link (I2V) and provides position information to the vehicle. The decoding strategy is based on accurate calibration of the output signal. Characterization of the transmitters and receivers, description of the coding schemes and decoding algorithms will be the focus of discussion in this paper.pt_PT
