摘要
An optical wireless communication system for an operation with wavelengths detectable by silicon optoelectronic integrated circuits is described. We use direct modulated vertical cavity surface emitting lasers as a transmitter. The field of view of the laser beam is adjusted with an adaptive optical system and aligned with a micro-electro-mechanical system based mirror for beam steering. To receive the modulated laser beam, we develop a receiver chip in 0.35 mu m BiCMOS technology. The experimental system shows a 3 Gb/s wireless transmission over a distance of 7 m with a bit-error rate <10(-9) without cost intensive optical components and complex adjustment procedure.
