Data energy localizing communication system and method thereof

A vehicle comprising a data energy localizing communication apparatus, wherein the data energy localizing communication apparatus comprises:

• a transmitter, the transmitter being configured to transmits an encoded data signal;
• and
• a receiver comprising:
• multiple measurement areas configured to sense electromagnetic energy;
• the receiver being configured to scan the sensed electromagnetic energy of the multiple measurement areas for the encoded data signal and select one or more of the multiple measurement areas for decoding of the encoded data signal.

A visible light energy localizing communication apparatus, the apparatus comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions executable by one or more processors, wherein the instructions comprise instructions to increase a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of a visible light communication (VLC) system:

• A method for maximizing signal to noise ratio comprising:
• by a data energy localizing communication system comprising:
• a visible light communication (VLC) transmitter and a visible light communication (VLC) receiver;
• transmitting, by the VLC transmitter, an encoded data signal;
• wherein the encoded data signal has a frame, and the frame has a preamble with a known frequency;
• sensing, by multiple measurement areas of a VLC receiver sensor, energy;
• wherein the energy comprises the encoded data signal and noise;
• scanning, by the VLC receiver, the multiple measurements areas for the encoded data signal, wherein the encoded data signal is identified by the known preamble frequency in the detected energy;
• selecting, by the VLC receiver, one or more of the multiple measurement areas for decoding;
• wherein the selected one or more of the multiple measurement areas is based at least in part on its correlation to the preamble frequency;
• decoding, by the VLC receiver, the encoded data signal;
• and
• tracking, by an optical flow and image stabilization algorithm, movement of at least one of the selected multiple measurement areas within a volume;
• wherein the tracked measurement areas contains the encoded data signal.
