title = "Investigating a visible light communication channel with an LED transmitter and a smartphone receiver",
abstract = "Visible light communication (VLC) has become an option for data communication due to its unregulated bandwidth, being cost effective and not posing any health threats to people and the environment. Several studies on the performance of VLC systems have been conducted, where the systems were used for both solid-state illumination and data transmission. In this paper, an application using a single LED as a transmitter and a smartphone camera as a receiver, is considered. The purpose of this project is to investigate this specific VLC channel in terms of the bit error rate as a function of the distance between the transmitter and receiver.",
