Global Optical Wireless Communications Market Report 2020: Progress in Visible Light Communications and Free Space Fiber Technologies, Applications and Markets - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Progress in Optical Wireless Communications - Visible Light Communications and Free Space Fiber Technologies, Applications and Markets" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report is important to a wide population of researches, technical and sales staff involved in the development of advanced Optical Wireless Communications methods. It is recommended for both service providers and vendors that are working with related technologies.

In connection with VLC development, the report is addressing Light Emitting Diode (LED) technologies and markets. LED, in the near future, will be a dominant source of illumination; and used also as a transmitting device. The VLC LED-based channels promise to deliver high-speed data in the office, home, and other environments with a high signal-to-noise ratio, and minimum infrastructure expenses.

The report is analyzing the emerging VLC industry, economics, technologies, standardization, and applications. It shows that the spectrum of VLC applications is increasing each year to support such developments as Intelligent Transportation Systems, Localization, and others. The report also surveys VLC-related patents (2017-2019).

FSF devices are solving access issues in metro and LAN environments. They are relatively inexpensive, support Gb/s rates of transmission; they are also offering low maintenance cost, guarantee a short installation time, and security of communications. The report presents the FSF technologies and market analysis as well as discusses their applications together with the survey of vendors and their portfolios.
