  • Abstract
    This paper presents work in progress on designing a transceiver model for realistic simulation of vehicular visible light communications (V2LC). We describe visible light communications (VLC) transceiver design and the most important operating procedures. We tested the VLC transceiver prototype design using a modified version of the 802.11 MAC protocol. Tests include three environments of different complexity levels that reflect relevant real life situations. Finally, we show preliminary results in the form of delay and packet delivery ratio.
