We optimize the design of a short-range communication system using nondirected line-of-sight IR radiation. We propose a receiver structure comprising a spherical thin-film optical filter and a truncated spherical lens that can significantly outperform an optimized planar-filter system. We can make the passband of the spherical filter arbitrarily narrow without constraining the field of view by using an arbitrarily large filter radius. We argue that a truncation angle of 90 degrees maximizes the receiver field of view when a spherical filter is used. We jointly optimize the transmitter radiation pattern and receiver optical components. Numerical results show that 269 mW of transmitted signal power is sufficient to achieve 100 Mbit/s throughout a 4-m radius cell with high background irradiance.
