IRS-assisted vehicular visible light communications systems: channel modeling and performance analysis.

Visible light communications (VLC) is a promising solution as an alternative for the fully occupied radio frequency bands in the near future. The rear (tail) and front of vehicles have lamps that can be used for vehicular visible light communications (VVLC) systems. However, one of the main challenges of VLC systems is the line-of-sight (LoS) blockage issue.
