一个商业现成的硅光电倍增管（SiPM）已被纳入光子计数VLC接收器。为了最小化在500勒克斯的环境光中的背景计数的数量，该接收器与405 nm发射器（特别是激光二极管）结合使用。数据通过使用开关键控的链路传输，在数据速率大于420 Mbps时，误码率（BER）小于10−3。此外，这些数据速率是在接收光功率为10 nW（−50 dBm）时实现的。这意味着它们比使用PIN光电二极管的接收器更敏感。
A commercial off-the-shelf silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) has been incorporated into a photon counting VLC receiver. In order to minimize the number of background counts in 500 lux of ambient light this receiver is used in conjunction with a 405 nm transmitter, specifically a laser diode. Data was transmitted over the resulting link using on-off keying and a bit-error-rate (BER) of less than 10−3 was achieved for data-rates greater than 420 Mbps. Furthermore, these data rates were achieved with received optical powers of 10 nW (−50 dBm). This means that they are orders of magnitude more sensitive than receivers that use PIN photodiodes.
