Particularly, the ideal Lambertian pattern is assumed for channel modeling and only a simple point-to-point transmission link is considered in the network analysis. In this paper, we investigate the performance of multi-hop vehicular VLC networks based on the recent reference channel models and upcoming standards like IEEE 802.15.7r1 and 802.11bb. The impact of the asymmetrical radiation pattern of car headlamps, as well as the road reflectance are considered. In MAC layer, we deploy carrier-sense-multiple-access with collision-avoidance (CSMA/CA) as the medium-access protocol.engrestrictedAccessMAC layer performance of multi-hop vehicular VLC networks with CSMA/CAconferenceObject10.1109/CSNDSP49049.2020.9249593Vehicular visible light communication networksChannel modellingVehicle-to-vehicle communicationRay tracing2-s2.0-85097642638
