Visual Light in production

WLAN is being used more and more today. However, industrial users shy away from its use because the radio channel does not allow an unlimited number of users and is subject to many interferences. In our project, we are investigating possibilities to modulate the light of LEDs in such a way that industrially suitable wireless communication is created.

Definition of the scope of duties:

Within this framework, the task is to conceptualize, build and benchmark transmitter and receiver circuits.

Electrical development:

  • Concept and RF design
  • Simulation e.g. with LTSpice
  • Development e.g. with Autodesk Eagle
  • Assembly and evaluation (benchmarking)
