contents This paper presents a novel indoor visible light positioning (VLP) system utilising one vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser installed at the ceiling centre of a space. The system offers three-dimensional localisation by sweeping through space at one-degree resolution in two dimensions (azimuth and elevation), significantly simplifying hardware. Through incorporating the angle of arrival and received signal strength, this system demonstrates excellent precision in indoor positioning. Simulation results verify that the system attains sub-centimetre precision for most test points, outperforming conventional multi-transmitter VLP schemes in cost-efficiency and simplicity.
