| Sumario: | In order to increase transmission capacity, multiplexing schemes in different physical dimensions, including time, frequency, modulation quadrature, polarization, and space, can be employed. In this work, we propose and demonstrate a red color laser-diode (LD) based visible-light-communication (VLC) system using two kinds of digital domain multiplexing schemes, orthogonal-frequency-division-multiplexing (OFDM) and power-domain division-multiplexing (PowDM). The two digital domain multiplexed data can achieve data rates of 1.66 Gbit/s and 6.41 Gbit/s, respectively, providing a total data rate of 8.07 Gbit/s, fulfilling the pre-forward error correction (pre-FEC) bit-error-rate (BER) limit. The measured signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) are 10.96 dB and 14.45 dB, respectively. Here, similar to OFDM, the PowDM can enhance the total system capacity by allowing acceptable signal spectra overlapping among different power division signals to maximize the bandwidth utilization. An experiment to verify and evaluate the proposed work is performed. The modulation and demodulation of OFDM and PowDM are discussed. The optimum power levels of the individual signals in the PowDM signal are also analyzed. |
