In this study, a genetic algorithm (GA) based resource allocation technique is proposed for visible light communication (VLC) networks. The optical VLC network consists of very small-sized cells in interior spaces where existing lighting infrastructure is used. Effective resource allocation mechanisms are needed in VLC networks to increase system capacity and distribute resources more equitably among users. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to maximize the total channel capacity by proposing a GA-based resource allocation technique. The proposed resource allocation algorithm gave better results in terms of increasing system capacity compared to Round Robin and Best CQI algorithms., In this paper, we present a genetic algorithm (GA) based resource allocation technique for indoor optical visible light communication (VLC) networks. Optical VLC network using existing lighting infrastructure in an indoor environment is a cellular network with very small size cells. It is necessary to have effective resource allocation mechanisms for VLC networks to maximize system throughput and fairness among users. We propose a GA based resource allocation scheme to improve total system throughput. Our proposed scheme gives better results compared to Round Robin and Best CQI algorithms in terms of system throughput.
