Indoor Channel Characteristics of Visible Light Communication

Tabassum Ara, Javed Ashraf

Abstract


This article reviews the visible light communications (VLC), a technology in which the visible spectrum is modulated to transmit data. It presents the VLC communication system: the transmitter, the channel, and the receiver. In this paper, the optical power distribution is calculated at receiver plane in a LOS path (ignoring the reflection of walls) at different Field of View (FOV). It is observed that on decreasing the FOV, the concentrator gain and the maximum and minimum optical power distribution increases.

Keywords


VLC technology; modulation methods; Optical Wireless Communications; Light Emitting Diodes and Field of View
