Visible light communication (VLC) is being envisioned as an enabling technology to provide the much-needed spectral relief for the ever-increasing demand for Internet connectivity and data consumption. Since VLC uses illumination sources for lighting as well as communication, it is required to provide dimming control for proper lighting and enhanced error performance for reliable data communication. In this paper, we address both these issues holistically. We formulate and study the power spectral densities of dimming-based modulation schemes, namely variable on-off keying (VOOK) and variable pulse position modulation (VPPM), and hence, derive their bandwidth requirements and spectral efficiencies. Moreover, the capacity of VLC systems is severely limited by the inter-symbol interference (ISI) occurring as a result of the multipath propagation of light signals in VLC. We propose to ameliorate the error performance of VLC systems by using channel equalization for ISI mitigation, thereby enhancing the system capacity. We develop the analytical model of a dimmable VLC system employing channel equalization and use this model to study the effect of dimming and data rate on the error performance of VOOK and VPPM schemes. We present simulation and analytical results to show that the performance of dimming-based modulation schemes is significantly improved using channel equalization.
