One of the major breakthroughs in wireless communication technology is represented by Visible Light Communication (VLC) standardised at ISO level within IEEE 802.15.7 Due to its advantages i.e., high transmission rates, security and immunity from electromagnetic interference as opposed to relatively microwave counterparts crucial for QoS assessment example video streaming application. Nonetheless, the hidden node problem poses a serious challenge in Medium Access Control (MAC) layer of these networks and renders collisions, degraded throughput and increased latency affecting its performance as well as reliability of communication system. In this survey paper, the authors review all of the literature on how to address hidden node problems in IEEE 802.15.7 MAC layer wireless networks extensively. The strategies and schemes proposed for addressing this conflict include modifications in the MAC protocol, introduction of sophisticated collision avoidance mechanisms or cooperative communication methods. Moreover, we evaluate the performance of these solutions under distinct network scenarios with a focus on important metrics like throughput, latency and packet delivery rate. The current approaches are discussed and evaluated in which the paper suggests, on-line or real-time investigations that allow to study more specific scopes of behavior. Ultimately, our survey is meant to be a highly useful resource for researchers and industry practitioners in the field, providing an overview of existing state-of-the-art solutions that shall lead future work towards more reliable/efficient VLC systems. This paper analyzes all MAC layer solution methods of IEEE 802.15.7 to help developers build an efficient and reliable wireless network for their applications with optimal performance.
