  text: "Visible light communication (VLC) allows the dual use of lighting and wireless
    communication systems by\r\nmodulation of illumination devices. However, to increase
    the performance, typically, beam-forming measures are\r\ntaken creating pencil
    beams, thus contradicting the illumination purpose. In order to optimize the performance\r\ntrade
    o\v between e\x0Ecient illumination and communication, the switching capabilities
    of illumination LEDs are\r\nexamined. Illumination LEDs with standard drivers
    and without beam-forming show limited applicability for\r\ncommunication purposes
    as they are not optimized for the necessary switching capability (f \x19 11 MHz)
    and\r\ncoherence. Methods to enhance the electrical current by pre-equalisation,
    biasing, carrier sweeping and current\r\nshaping are examined in respect to the
    illumination LED's communication performance. A novel driver scheme\r\nis derived
    which achieves considerably higher switching frequencies (f \x15 100 MHz) without
    employing beamforming\r\nat the illumination LED. This driver is able to obtain
    a data rate of up to 200 Mbit/s at a distance of\r\n3.2 m, using on-o\v keying
    (OOK) modulation technique. Therefore, it is feasible to apply the LED driver
    by\r\nimplementing standardised illumination devices in VLC systems."

  text: "Novel industrial wireless applications require wideband, real-time channel\r\ncharacterization
    due to complex multipath propagation. Rapid machine motion\r\nleads to fast time
    variance of the channel's reflective behavior, which must be\r\ncaptured for radio
    channel characterization. Additionally, inhomogeneous radio\r\nchannels demand
    highly flexible measurements. Existing approaches for radio\r\nchannel measurements
    either lack flexibility or wide-band, real-time\r\nperformance with fast time
    variance. In this paper, we propose a correlative\r\nchannel sounding approach
    utilizing a software-defined architecture. The\r\napproach enables real-time,
    wide-band measurements with fast time variance\r\nimmune to active interference.
    The desired performance is validated with a\r\ndemanding industrial application
    example."

  text: The reduction of wires and connections is a fundamental necessity for upcoming
    industrial 4.0 solutions, requiring a large amount of reconfigurability and flexibility.
    Our research focuses on recent ways of combining energy and data transmission
    in single contactless transducers, enabling easy installation, maintenance and
    possible fulfilment of high protection classes. While this approach can typically
    be solved by combining Wifi and inductive energy transfer, the Wifi aspect is
    often limited by the available media access and channel occupation. Another issue
    is the real time capability of Wifi or other wireless transmission protocols like
    IEEE 802.15.4. While creating a new wireless or contactless standard is beyond
    the focus of this work, we concentrate on combining existing technologies and
    their interoperability. This includes powerline communication systems, near field
    data transmission and inductive energy transfer mechanisms.

  text: Industrial wireless communication in license-free spectrum bands such as the
    2.4-GHz-ISM band suffer from motion and multipath effects, which cause a high
    time- and frequency-variant channel attenuation. Additionally, mutual interference
    from heterogeneous wireless technologies limits real-time capabilities of industrial
    wireless technologies. Therefore, performance validations of industrial wireless
    technologies within appropriate industrial wireless environments are necessary.
    In this paper, we present the first raw measurement data set publication of an
    industrial wireless environment characterization in a data repository for free
    public access to enable transparent industrial wireless technology validation
    and to enhance their comparability. We characterize the whole license-free 2.4-GHz-ISM
    band with a time resolution of 110 μs and a frequency resolution of 1MHz in a
    coexistence scenario with four antennas obstructed by robot arm movements. Additionally,
    the frequency and time variance of the measured channel attenuations are analyzed.
