Screen antenna: Integrated data transfer and display using RGB LEDs

This thesis presents Screen Antenna - A Visible Light Communication (VLC) system that integrates data transmission and reception, with the conventional pixel display capability of RGB LEDs. The system is constructed with off-the-shelf components and runs on the Arduino Due microcontroller. The hardware and software have been designed with the...

Analysis and modelling of light sources for visible light communication

The considerable increase in the number of devices needing connectivity, such as mobile phones and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, has led to an exponential rise in data volumes during the last years, that will surely continue over the next decade. Therefore, it will be increasingly challenging to provide sufficient RF resources. A novel...
