Abstract
Providing high data rates is one of the drivers in visible light communication (VLC) systems. This paper introduces a VLC system that employs angle diversity transmitters with beam steering to provide high data rates. In this work, red, yellow, green, and blue (RYGB) laser diodes (LD) are used as transmitters to obtain a high modulation bandwidth. Two types of RYGB LDs units are used in this paper: angle diversity transmitters (ADT) RYGB LDs light unit (for illumination and communication) and RYGB LDs light unit (for illumination). In addition, a four branch angle diversity receiver (ADR) is used where we study the delay spread and SNR. The proposed system was compared to the normal VLC system. A data rate up to 22.8 Gb/s was achieved using simple on-off-keying (OOK) modulation.
