Abstract

The uniformity characteristic of emitted radiation in VLC applications is a factor that can affect the efficiency of a detector and the overall efficiency of the VLC system. In this paper, we theoretically investigate the optical uniformity characteristic of using LEDs in VLC applications in terms of the parameter of the emission angle of LEDs and the spatial distribution of LEDs. The result indicates that the optical uniformity can be controlled at a high level by controlling the emission angle of the LED or distributing the LEDs in the room's space.
