With the help of the well-matched THz QWP, the optical collection efficiency has greatly been improved. A data signal transmitted over 2.2 m with a low bit error rate (≤1 × 10^-8) and data rate as high as 20 Mbps is achieved, which are almost 1 order of magnitude higher than that previously reported.展开更多

Field measurements via online UV communication are conducted to compare the system performances with and without spectrum spreading. The results indicate that the spread-spectrum technique is capable of suppressing noise in UV atmospheric scattering channel and therefore improve the system performance evidently. Details of implementation are also provided to make the results useful for similar system design in research on optical wireless communications.展开更多

Due to the CPM effect between the probe light and the pump pulse, a pair of polarity-reversed Gaussian pulses is produced. After proper differential delay, an UWB monocycle pulse with 84-ps width and the fractional bandwidth of 153% is generated after photodetection.展开更多

In this Letter, we present a promising solution that utilizes indoor omni-directional visible light communication (VLC) technology to realize efficient multi-robot intelligent coordination (MRIC). The specific design is presented along with the implemental details of a practical MRIC experimental platform. The exper- imental results show that a 50 Mb/s on-off-keying-based omni-directional VLC can be realized with an effective distance of 2.3 m and a bit error rate of 〈10^-6 in the proposed MRIC platform.展开更多
