Zusammenfassung:In this paper, we present a high-speed visible light communication (VLC) system based on a single commercially available phosphorescent white light-emitting diode (LED). In this system, a preequalization circuit is used to extend the modulation bandwidth, and a differential output receiver is utilized to reduce the system noise. With adaptive bit and power allocation and orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM), we experimentally demonstrated a 2.0-Gb/s visible light link over 1.5-m free-space transmission, and the BER is under a preforward error correction limit of 3.8×10 -3 . To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest white-light VLC data rate using a single phosphorescent white LED.
