VLC Technology Didactic Module

Abstract

Due to the increasing demand of the electromagnetic spectrum of radiofrequency for wireless communication, it is necessary to use alternative frequencies bands for these services. This paper describes the study and implementation of a didactic module of the FSOC (Free-Space Optical Communication), which uses wavelengths of the visible spectrum to offer non- atmosphere-guided links known as VLC (Visible Light Communication). The developed module can be used for the learning environment to complement the didactic contents in the classroom, it is allowing easy visualization of the effects that are occurring in the propagation of the signals in an intuitive and simplified method.
