The document is a project report for a Digital Communication course that explores data transmission through visible light communication (VLC). It discusses two prototypes created by the students:
1. A VLC transceiver circuit that was able to transmit and receive data through an LED and photodiode. This demonstrated basic VLC functionality.
2. An audio transmission system using VLC that sent a song from a computer to a speaker using an LED and solar panel receiver.
The report also covers the characteristics of LEDs for VLC, modulation schemes like OFDM that could be used, challenges in implementing the hardware, and techniques for mitigating nonlinear distortion in LEDs. The overall goal was to research and prototype basic V
