Abstract: This paper presents an improved white light-emitting-diode (LED) wireless transmitter for the Joint Illumination and Communication (JIC) System, which consists of two parts: the driver circuit and the pre-emphasis circuit. The main purpose of the driver circuit part is to solve the problem of dissipated power when sweeping the remaining carriers during the signal modulation of the high-efficiency, high-power and high-speed white LED driver. A push-pull structure driver with a current conduction angle less than 180 degrees is proposed, which is analogous to a Class C power amplification driver, thus avoiding the simultaneous existence of voltage and current on the driver circuit when the remaining carriers are swept out, and improves the efficiency of the LED driver. On this basis, the pre-emphasis circuit part adopts the phase shift technology to improve the data transmission rate, and the system efficiency has also been improved. Then, an improved class C push-pull structure white LED driver with phase shift pre-emphasis technology is formed. This novel driver and pre-emphasis technology achieve a system efficiency of 95.73% with a 10 W LED. The test results show that the system communication -3 dB bandwidth expanded from the original 8.3 MHz to 13.67 MHz, and the best-obtained transceiver baud rate is 25 Mbps at a distance of 1.3 m with BER of 1.63 x 10(-4) The test result verifies that the LED driver proposed in this paper is currently the highest figure of merit (FoM) for high power JIC systems.
