In this letter, the communication data rates for different ranges are evaluated. The data rates are based on real scenarios of the background noise and path losses and are experimentally obtained with a testing system built upon commercial offthe-shelf components. Comparisons of range-rate performance for different average noise levels are also conducted with the use of red/yellow/green LED lights. Results show that achieving the data rates of kilobits per second at a communication range of hundred meters is possible under the ordinary noise scenario, a finding that is highly significant for practical applications.展开更多

Compared with conventional methods,the waveband of VLC is harmless to human and safe to communication because of no magnetism radiation. An audio information transmission system using LED traffic lights is presented based on VLC technology. The system is consisted of transmitting terminal,receiving terminal and communication channel. Some experiments were made under real communication environment. The experimental results showed that the traffic information transmission system works steadily with good communication quality and achieves the purpose of transmitting audio information through LED traffic lights,with a data transfer rate up to 250 kbps over a distance of 5 meters.展开更多
