In vehicular visible light communication (VLC), the reliable communication distance may be relatively short due to its dependence on many factors including the weather condition. This necessitates the use of relay-assisted systems to extend the transmission range. In this paper, we investigate experimentally the performance of vehicular multi-hop VLC systems in outdoor environments. Particularly, we first examine the effect of ambient noise on signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) during a whole day. Then, we conduct two multi-hop experiments, i.e., one at daytime and one at nighttime. We measure the bit error rate (BER) for each individual hop and then obtain the overall performance of the multi-hop system. We further compare experimental BER with theoretical BER to confirm our results.
