Abstract: In this paper, we propose and evaluate a novel light-emitting diode (LED) nonlinearity estimation and compensation scheme using probabilistic Bayesian learning (PBL) for spectral-efficient visible light communication (VLC) systems. The nonlinear power-current curve of the LED transmitter can be accurately estimated by exploiting PBL regression and hence the adverse effect of LED nonlinearity can be efficiently compensated. Simulation results show that, in a 80-Mbit/s orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based nonlinear VLC system, comparable bit-error rate (BER) performance can be achieved by the conventional time domain averaging (TDA)-based LED nonlinearity mitigation scheme with totally 20 training symbols (TSs) and the proposed PBL-based scheme with only a single TS. Therefore, compared with the conventional TDA scheme, the proposed PBL-based scheme can substantially reduce the required training overhead and hence greatly improve the overall spectral efficiency of bandlimited VLC systems. It is also shown that the PBL-based LED nonlinearity estimation and compensation scheme is computational efficient for the implementation in practical VLC systems.
