Abstract
In the Internet of Things (IoT) applications based on visible light communication (VLC) systems, such as outdoor intelligent transportation and indoor intelligent home, a large amount of light energy is scattered. Therefore, this paper studies a visible light receiving circuit based on VLC, which is used to collect energy and receive data at the same time to solve such problems, which is called the simultaneous visible-light information and power transfer (SVIPT) circuit. At present, most of the circuits with similar functions to SVIPT are based on two branches, where they are using capacitors to filter direct current (DC) in the data reception branch and inductors to block alternating current (AC) signals at the energy collection end, but these circuits are inefficient and have significant drawbacks that cannot be truly used in practical applications. The SVIPT circuits proposed in this paper discard the previous concept and we have analyzed the main functions of the two branches specifically. Finally, the SVIPT circuit architecture that can be used in the actual scene is designed, and some simulations are carried out to prove its feasibility.
