In this paper, we alternatively focus on the use of an image sensor or camera as a receiver due to its wide availability. However, the successful use of an image sensor mainly depends on the efficiency of the encoder-decoder and the modulation scheme. Thus, this paper proposes a novel modulation scheme based on a square wave signal called a square wave quadrature amplitude modulation (SW-QAM) method. This method can accommodate different camera settings and overcome the problem of LED flicker that is generally sensed by human eyes when the LED frequency is low. At the transmitter side, multiple LEDs can be used to increase the transmission bit rate, while, at the receiver side, a Wiener filter is used as a complementary technique to SW-QAM for solving the light interference phenomenon due to the closeness of one LED to another. Our experimental results show that the proposed SW-QAM scheme can decode symbols very well either the for close or far communication distances, dark or bright lighting conditions, and single or multiple LED points.IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers)2019-07-11engjournal articleNAhttp://hdl.handle.net/2115/75343https://doi.org/10.1109/ACCESS.2019.29284172169-3536IEEE Access79480694821
