Abstract :
Light Emitting Diode (LED), which is the most promising technology for lighting, offers potential synergy for illumination and wireless data transmission. Optical wireless communication (OWC) based on white LEDs provides several advantages over the radio based wireless systems, i.e. license free spectrum, low power consumption, high privacy. Here, we report two indicative indoor OWC configurations assuming illumination levels at the receiver compliant with the standards demonstrated by our group.
