Description
Summary:This paper evaluates the performance of rate splitting (RS), a robust interference management scheme, in an optical wireless communication (OWC) network that uses infrared lasers referred to as vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) as optical transmitters. In 6G OWC, providing high spectral and energy efficiency requires advanced multiple access schemes that can serve multiple users simultaneously in a non-orthogonal fashion. In this context, RS has the potential to manage multi-user interference at high data rates compared to orthogonal transmission schemes. Simulation results show the high performance of RS compared to baseline approaches.
