Abstract

The smart building (SB), a promising solution to the fast-paced and continuous urbanization around the world, is an integration of a wide range of systems and services and involves a construction of multiple layers. The SB is capable of sensing, acquiring and processing a tremendous amount of data as well as performing proper action and adaptation accordingly. With rapid increases in the number of connected nodes and thereby the data transmission demand in SBs, conventional transmission and processing techniques are insufficient to provide satisfactory services. To enhance the intelligence of SBs and achieve efficient monitoring and control, both indoor visible light communications (VLC) and machine learning (ML) shall be applied jointly to construct a reliable data transmission network with powerful data processing and reasoning abilities. In this regard, we envision an SB framework enabled by indoor VLC and ML in this article.

  • Accurate indoor positioning might not be viable by solely utilizing RF communications.

    “On the other hand, there is a growing consensus that accurate indoor positioning might not be viable by sole utilizing RF communications [36].”

  • The high intelligence of the 6G network directly reflects in communication services such as indoor/outdoor positioning, multi-device management, information search, e-health, surveillance, and cyber security.

    “Furthermore, as a human-centric network, the high intelligence of 6G network also directly reflects in a plethora of communication services, e.g., indoor/outdoor positioning, multi-device management, information search, e-health, surveillance, cyber security [36], [71].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
