Technical field
The present invention is on a kind of optic communication transmission and reception device and method and optical communication system and method.
Background technology
Optic communication is a kind of use light to complete the wireless communication technology of communication, and wherein light can be by one or more light two Pole pipe (photo diode) or an imaging sensor are sensed.For example, light may be, but not limited to, X-ray, ultraviolet light (ultra-violet light), visible ray (visible light) or from 109Hz to 1019It is infrared in Hz frequency range Line (infrared).The bandwidth of radio wave (RF) is a kind of precious resource.So, optic communication can provide a kind of meet by force The substitute technology of the radio communication of strength demand.For example, the visible ray sent from one or more light emitting diodes (LED) in family and It is widely used in office, therefore it causes the visible ray sent from one or more LEDs to be enough to be applied to ubiquitous number According to conveyer (data transmitter).Camera has been commonly used for mobile phone, notebook and many hand-helds Electronic equipment.Therefore imaging sensor can be used as an input picture detector (incoming image detector), Can be as the receiver in visible light communication (Visible Light Communication, VLC) system.Fig. 1 is to use one The imaging sensor 122 of LED array 112 and one such as high speed camera, optical communication system an example schematic.As shown in figure 1, One encoder 114 of one conveyer 110 can perform physical layer process (physical layer processing), such as wrong Amendment encodes (error-correctionencoding), modulation (modulation), OFDM modulation (OFDM) by mistake Deng.The inverse signal that can perform encoder 114 in a decoder 124 of a receiver 120 handles (inverse signalprocessing).Fig. 2 be using the imaging sensors 222 of a single LED 212 and one such as high speed camera, optic communication One example schematic of system.
One imaging sensor can be made up of the photosensitive unit (photosensite) of an array.Charge coupled cell (Charge Coupled Device, CCD) and complementary metal oxide semiconductor (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor, CMOS) be two kinds of fundamental types digital sensor.The first row photosensitive unit of one ccd sensor array It is read into an output state, then is transported to an amplifier (amplifier) and an analogue-to-digital converters (ADC). After the first row is read, it is dumped out from the buffer of reading, and the next line photosensitive unit of this array is read into In this buffer.Each photosensitive unit in cmos sensor has at least three transistor (transistor).These are brilliant Body pipe is allowed to do photosensitive processing in photosensitive unit, and each pixel/photosensitive unit can be accessed individually respectively.At some In existing optical communication technique, in this two kinds of any imaging sensor, only one or a few is shared ADCs be used to sense all pixels in image.
Fig. 3 is an example schematic of a visible light communication technology.In figure 3, a sensing image (sensed image) In non-interest region (non-interested region) imaging sensor of the pixel in a receiver 320 also by sharing ADC is sampled, then by the receiver (Rx) in receiver 320-fundamental frequency processing unit (baseband processing Uint) 326 abandon.In other words, this technology takes all pixels of shooting from imaging sensor 322, and uses a brightness Change detects (luminance change detection) to detect interest region (Region Of Interest, ROI).Adopt All pixels in image are taken to limit the sampling rate (frame rate) for reaching as high as hundreds of pictures per second.However, Data rate (data rate) requirement for being generally used for radio communication is 10M per second to 1G.
Fig. 4 is another example schematic of a visible light communication technology.In Fig. 4 visible light communication system, a transmission Device 400 has the smooth launch driving circuit (light-emitting of a modulation circuit (modulation circuit) 410 and one drive circuit)420.Modulation circuit 410 produces different modulated signals 412.Light launch driving circuit 420 is according to from tune Modulated signal 412 that circuit 410 processed is exported and as a drive signal 421, to drive a light-emitting component 422.Work as drive signal 421 when being maintained at a high level, and light launch driving circuit 420 causes light-emitting component 422 to send the visible ray with the superposition of signal 402 440.When drive signal 421 is maintained at a low level, light launch driving circuit 420 causes light-emitting component 422 not light.
Optic communication is still a potential solution for global radio spectrum shortage.Visible light communication technology it is each Solution is planted to be suggested.Generally, photocell such as LED, and imaging sensor such as camera, are that visible light communication is solved The existing element of scheme.However, LED frequency response has low bandwidth, and imaging sensor has because of shared ADC Low sampling rate.Therefore, for the high data transmission rate (high data transmission rate) of visible light communication Solution still has many challenges.
