The capacity region for single input single out broadcast channel (SISO BC) is achieved by non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), which utilizes successive interference cancellation (SIC) to mitigate the inter-user interference. However, the complexity of SIC is high. To balance between the sum rate performance and the complexity of receivers, in this paper, we explore rate splitting multiple access (RSMA) in visible light communications (VLC). We formulate the joint rate allocation and power control problem to maximize the sum-rate under both quality of service (QoS) and SIC constraints. To solve this non-convex problem, a successive convex approximation (SCA) based algorithm is proposed to obtain a local optimal solution. Numerical results show that 1-layer RSMA is able to achieve very close performance to NOMA with much reduced complexity. Jointly considering the performance and complexity of the system, 1-layer RSMA is an attractive alternative to NOMA in SISO VLC networks.
