A comparison of APD and SPAD based receivers for visible light communications

Visible light communications (VLC) is an alternative method of indoor wireless communications that requires sensitive receivers. Ideally, single photon avalanche detectors (SPADs) could be used to create more sensitive receivers. However, the dead-time, finite output pulse width and photon detection...
