Abstract :
The commercialization of visible light communication (VLC) technologies is facing up some barriers, such as high complexity, poor mobility, heterogeneous integration with TCP/IP networks, multiaccess, big size and etc. We introduce a practical engineering VLC system, which can solve some of the problems. Utilizing commercial-off-the-shelf technologies, the complexity and size are reduced. A kind of nonimaging concentrator is used to enhance mobility. We design a new kind of protocol to realize multiaccess and heterogeneous integration with TCP/IP. It is proved that VLC surely have a bright future for commercialization.
