Abstract

High-speed optical wireless systems are challenging to implement, due to limitations in available components, and implementation of the necessary high speed electronics. In this paper we report on the development of a gigabit/s class infrared indoor optical wireless system that uses commercially available components. System challenges and design choices are discussed together with details of demonstrator construction. Results from the implementation of a demonstration system are also detailed, together with a discussion of how this might scale in the future.
