Hybrid RF/FSO link design and field insights for maritime connectivity.
Reports the design, deployment, and operational insights from a 19-km hybrid RF/FSO link in the Red Sea connecting Shabara Island to the mainland with multi-Gbps throughput — including switch-level architecture, redundancy, and weather-induced fading.

Design considerations for RIS-assisted outdoor VLC links under practical constraints.
Surveys how RIS can mitigate LOS blockage, misalignment, and mobility in outdoor VLC scenarios — UAVs, vehicles, and smart-city links — and outlines deployment trade-offs and open research questions.

Optimization of RIS-assisted VLC systems balancing sum rate and user fairness.
Jointly optimizes sum-rate and Jain's fairness index in RIS-assisted indoor VLC, with separate formulations for specular and diffuse reflecting elements solved via Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization.
