Abstract

In an indoor optical wireless link laser beam carrying the information propagates through a room and reflects on walls and various objects. Multiple reflections and multipath distortions occur when using this link. A power budget of the indoor optical wireless link and a model of the surface reflectivity are presented in the contribution. The directional properties of the surface reflectivity are simulated by an empirical mathematical function characterizing reflectivity and directional reflectance of the surface. In the last part of the paper an experimental setup for verification of the created empirical function is presented.
