Abstract :
This paper presents the concept, design and analysis for a visible light communications receiver to guard against blocking and enhance mobility. Different geometrical shapes have been investigated, with two being chosen and analyzed in MATLAB for the received power and the root-mean-square (RMS) delay spread. The results show that the receiver is fully mobile within the test area and can handle data rates far greater than that offered by commercially available LEDs.
