Zusammenfassung:Visible Light Communications (VLC) can provide both illumination and communications and offers a means to alleviate the predicted spectrum crunch for radio-frequency wireless communications. In this paper, we report a laser diode based white-light communications link that operates over a wide area and supports high data rates. The proposed system is a four-colour multiplexed high-speed VLC system that uses a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) mirror-based beam-steering. The system operates at record data-rates of more than 35 Gb/s (Bit Error Rate(BER)
