Abstract:
Objective:
1. Introduction
❖ Visible Light Communication [VLC] is a data communications method which
uses visible light between 400-800 Tetra Hz [Wavelength=780–375 nm]. VLC
is a subset of optical wireless communications technologies. This technology
uses fluorescent lamps or Light Emitting Diodes [LED] to transmit signals.
2. Specifications:
Visible light communication (VLC) is a wireless method that uses light emitted
by LEDs to deliver networked, mobile, high-speed communication similar to
Wi-Fi, leading to the term Li-Fi. It can be used as a standalone solution or in a
supplementary role to radio-frequency (RF) or cellular network communication
● Audio Transmitter
It consists of three stages:
1) Audio in.
2) Pre Amplifier.
3) Led.
Audio In:
The input to transmitter circuit is through 3.5mm jack pin connected to computer (or
mobile). The audio signal is given to the base of the transistor. The capacitance connected
serially increases the analog signal stability and blocks DC signal.
Pre Amplifier:
The audio signal is amplified before transmission to compensate the loss that occur during
transmission and to ensure the audio signal is power enough to ignite the LED. In this
project, BC337 is used in common emitter voltage divider configuration, since it has high
current gain.
LED:
The 1W LED is used as a transmitter. The audio signal is given to one of the terminals of
LED. The LED produces variation in light due to audio signal. This light is emitted in
open space to be received by photocell.
● Audio Receiver
This section also contains three stages:
1) Photocell.
2) Audio amplifier
3) Audio out.
Photocell:
The photocell is used to receive the analog signal emitted by the LED. In this project, solar
cell is used which generates an electric pulse according to the light incident on the
solar cell.
Audio Amplifier:
The audio amplifier, amplifies the low power audio input signal to the high power audio
signal. In this project, LM 386 audio amplifier is bypassed with a capacitor to produce gain
of 200. The audio out signal is power enough to given to the Loudspeaker
Audio Out:
The amplified audio signal is given to the loudspeaker which plays the transmitted audio
signal

❖ Frequency: Visible light has more frequency than radio waves and
spectrum for visible light is not limited. Visible light frequencies lie
between Ultraviolet and Infrared waves frequency. Since Visible
light is divided into four ranges:
○ Near Ultraviolet [3 PHz].
○ Far Infrared [3 THz].
○ Mid Infrared [30 THz].
○ Near Infrared [300 THz].
