Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are inviting submissions to this Applied Sciences Special Issue on “Intelligent Optical Communication and Networks”.

Artificial intelligence has emerged as a new powerful tool to solve critical problems that cannot be easily tackled using conventional approaches in future optical communication systems and networking. This Special Issue will focus on the original works in the scope of intelligent optical communications and networking, including but not limited to optical fiber communications, optical space communications, visible light communications and even underwater optical communications.

In this Special Issue, we invite submissions exploring cutting-edge research and recent advances in the fields of “Intelligent Optical Communication systems and Networking”. Both theoretical and experimental studies on key technologies such as equalization of distortions introduced by optical channels and other devices, optical performance monitoring, adaptive allocation of networking resources, proactive fault detection/prevention, intrusions detection and network security management, etc are welcome, as well as comprehensive review and survey papers.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

When the direct visible-light channel is affected by people walking or other obstacles, the shadow effect formed in the receiver space affects communication performance and can even lead to communication interruption. In this paper, two numerical methods for calculating the shadow area of the human body were proposed for an indoor multi-light communication system. The influence of shadows on system performance was analyzed using the mean square errors of illuminance and signal-to-noise ratio, as well as the interrupt probability, as parameters. The results showed that shadows had a great influence on the performance of the visible-light communication system. When the number of light sources was fixed, the shadow effect could be effectively reduced by optimizing the layout of the light sources. These research results can provide a theoretical basis for improving the stability of visible-light communication systems. Full article
