Abstract

Disclosed is an apparatus and a method for transmitting data by using visible light. The transmission apparatus includes: a Serial-to-Parallel (S/P) converter for performing a Serial-to-Parallel conversion on transmission data, and generating multiple parallel data; a modulation means for modulating the multiple parallel data generated by the S/P converter, and generating multiple modulation signals; an Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) means for performing an IFFT on the multiple modulation signals so that the multiple modulation signals are orthogonal to one another, and generating an IFFT signal; and a light-emitting means for causing a light source to emit light based on the IFFT signal generated by the IFFT means.
