Abstract
The technology of visible light communication (VLC) for indoor use has LED and photodiode as two main components. Despite many advantages, VLC has a major problem regarding the short distance of effective communication due to limited power of the emitted light from LED. This study aims to improve effectiveness of VLC by increasing its distance of wireless data communication when used indoor. The method was based on using white LED Array. The operational results at different distances were presented by using UART as the connection interface between the transmitter and the receiver. This research was successful in increasing the maximum data transmission distance of VLC to be up to 400cm. The type of photodiode that enabled this success was OSD-IOOE Photodiode.
