- Abstract
Visible light communication is a fast growing research using LEDs for both illumination and data communication. In this paper we have investigated the indoor visible light communication using Optisystem simulation tool for a practically measured channel characteristics of a white LED. The performance of the Visible Light Communication system is evaluated through Quality factor and log of BER values for various bit rate and link distance. This system can support 2 Gbps data rate up to 3 m of link distance with a Q factor of 5.76. White LED is used as a source for the communication and the study is carried for NRZ-OOK and RZ-OOK modulation formats. The VLC system performance is also measured in the case of external atmospheric light influence. The designed system provides good Quality factor for the RZ-OOK signal compare to the NRZ-OOK. And the received signal at our designed indoor VLC system worsens drastically if the external lighting condition goes above -80 dBm.
