Abstract

A coordination node can be configured to control communications between Visible Light Communication, VLC, Access Points, APs, and user equipments, UEs. The coordination node can: identify occurrence of an event relating to operation of a first VLC AP; determine that a second VLC AP and a third VLC AP each have communication coverage areas that are at least partially within a communication coverage area of the first VLC AP; control the second VLC AP to avoid it interfering with communications between the first VLC AP and a UE while it is within a common communication coverage area of the first VLC AP and the second VLC AP; and control the third VLC AP to avoid it interfering with communications between the first VLC AP and the UE while it is within a common communication coverage area of the first VLC AP and the second VLC AP.
