Abstract :
We presented a low cost experimental WLED transceiver which is capable to perform wireless communication at 10 Mb/s in an airplane or a space craft physical environment. From the experimental results, we derived the operational requirements of the WLED transceiver with OOK NRZ modulation. These results demonstrate the WLED wireless communication link technology is viable for size, weight, power and cost reduction in future generation of airplanes and space vehicles.
