Abstract

Visible light communication (VLC) is one of the most renowned technologies for indoor communication to compete with the upcoming 5G technology. Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) and high-bandwidth µLEDs are the approaches to achieve gigabit-class VLC system. In this paper, we proposed a WDM-VLC model with multi-color µLED configuration using simple on–off keying (OOK) and 16 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) scheme. From the simulation approaches, data rate 2.7 Gb/s was achieved by OOK and 10.8 Gb/s by 16QAM after 8 m long VLC link. Therefore, BER was measured 10−4 and 10−15 when the electron lifetime and RC constant of µLED were 1 ns and 0.5 ns consequently. In addition, of the self RGBY LED was used for the experiment to get data rate 120 Mb/s by OOK and 480 Mb/s using 16QAM modulation scheme.
