Abstract

See full text

Disclosed herein is visible light communication technology having improved reception performance regardless of dimming control of lighting based on VPPM signals. A visible light communication apparatus includes a preamble generator for generating a preamble signal, a header generator for generating a PHY header, which includes information about the physical layer of a transmission packet and dimming information including the target dimming level of the transmission packet, a fixed dimming VPPM modulator for modulating the PHY header into a first VPPM signal according to a predetermined ratio, a transmission unit signal processor for generating transmission data by performing signal processing for data to be transmitted, a variable dimming VPPM modulator for modulating the transmission data into a second VPPM signal having the target dimming level of the transmission packet, and a signal synthesizer for forming the transmission packet by combining the first and second VPPM signals.
