Abstract

This paper presents a new analysis of the illumination and communication performance for visible light communication (VLC) with variable pulse position modulation (VPPM). In particular, it addresses the extra power losses due to the data modulation if a traditional buck converter LED driver is adapted for VLC. We compare VLC systems using two previously proposed driver schemes in the aspects of efficiency, illumination power, data rate and BER.
