EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATION OF A SINGLE-PHOTODIODE RECEIVER FOR VLC SYSTEMS USING COLOR SHIFT KEYING MODULATION

摘要

This letter reports the first experimental results obtained from a recently proposed single-photodiode receiver for visible light communications (VLC) using color shift keying (CSK) modulation. This novel detection scheme has the potential to reduce the implementation cost by two-thirds compared to the CSK-based receiver structure introduced in the VLC IEEE 802.15.7 standard. A proof of concept is performed to demonstrate its practical feasibility and advantages towards the deployment of VLC systems. (C) 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
