Zusammenfassung:A lighting device includes: a drive circuit that supplies power to a light source; a switch connected in series with the light source; and a controller that controls pulse modulation for visible light communication executed through switching ON and OFF of the switch in a first interval, and stops the pulse modulation in a second interval. The controller controls a peak value, which is a high value of a pulsed current supplied from the drive circuit to the light source, to match an average current value in the first interval with an average current value in the second interval.
