Description
Summary:In this research, we explain the use of visible light communication technology for communication systems between motorbikes, where so far motorcycle lights have only been used for lighting or speed markers. But now, with visible light communication we can use it as a medium to communicate between vehicles, especially motorbikes. Visible light communication (VLC) is a communication system using visible light as an information carrier. VLC has many advantages including in terms of safety, speed, and ease of application to the user to send various types of information including digital data such as text and images. The VLC transmission section will use the LED motorcycle headlamps to send information to the receiver i.e. Light-to-Voltage Sensors are mounted on the back of a motorcycle when several motorbikes are in convoy or platooning. This study describes the use of VLC Vehicle-to-vehicle technology so that motorbikes can communicate with each other so that the motorcycle itself can adjust the distance with other motorbikes in front of him without being under or semi-controlled by the rider. From the results of measurements with the selected transmitter and receiver system, communication between motorbikes can be done up to 130 cm during the day and 180 cm at night. The potential of this technology is that it can truly support communication systems between vehicles such as self-driving motorcycles in the future.
