Abstract

In the emerging framework of visible light communications, the limitation of modulation bandwidth of light emitting diodes (LEDs) transmitters is counterbalanced by the use of red-green-blue (RGB) LEDs since they exhibit higher modulation bandwidth. Using RGB LEDs allows to exploit the spatial multiplexing aspects, that is obtaining parallel channels for transmission. In this context, we used at the receiver RGB-tuned photodiodes (PDs). Hence each PD can, in principle, detect only the information its tuning is matched to. The drawback of increasing spectral efficiency is the presence of cross-talk at the single PD due to the signals emitted by the remaining colors when a perfect color filtering is not applied. In this paper we consider amplitude shift keying (ASK) modulation, investigate the issue of the spatial (color) interference and we present a blind multichannel adaptive equalizer able to mitigate the temporary intersymbol interference (ISI) and also the spatial (color) ISI, this latter partially suppressed using suitable color filters. We analyze also the convergence of the adaptive algorithm and compare its performance with the literature.
