    Area of Science:

    • Optical Wireless Communication
    • Free-Space Optics
    • Integrated Photonics

    Background:

    • Indoor data distribution faces challenges with traditional wired networks.
    • Optical wireless communication offers high bandwidth potential.
    • Line-of-sight systems require precise alignment and tracking.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a tracked line-of-sight optical wireless communication system for indoor data distribution.
    • To achieve automatic link establishment without a back channel.
    • To demonstrate high-speed, error-free data transmission.

    Main Methods:

    • A laser-based transmitter with adaptive focus and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) mirror steering was developed.
    • A CMOS image sensor and image recognition algorithm were used for receiver localization and alignment.
    • A self-developed optoelectronic integrated chip served as the receiver, minimizing optics requirements.

    Main Results:

    • Automatic communication link setup was achieved without a back channel.
    • Error-free data transmission (bit error rate <10⁻⁹) was demonstrated.
    • A data rate of 3 Gbit/s over a distance of 3.5 m was successfully achieved.

    Conclusions:

    • The realized system offers a viable solution for indoor data distribution.
    • The adaptive optics and image recognition enable autonomous link establishment.
    • The system's economic attractiveness is enhanced by low receiver optics requirements.
