Visible light communication at 50 Mbit/s using a red LED and an SPAD receiver

摘要

Visible light communication (VLC) is demonstrated at 50 Mbit/s using a 4-SPAD array receiver and a resonant-cavity-LED transmitter in a line-of-sight optical link configuration up to 5 m of transmitting distance for a bit-error ratio below 2?10^{?3. Background light up to 2000 lux can be tolerated.}
