Abstract
Although visible light communication (VLC) systems provide high density links for use in Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices, the design of high rate VLC transmitters that maintain luminaire efficacy is an open problem. In this article, a novel approach to the integration of VLC within light-emitting diode (LED) drivers is proposed through the replacement of freewheeling/blocking diodes with light-emitting devices termed a light-emitting commutating diodes (LECDs). In this manner, communications and illumination can be provided using a simple, cost effective design while employing no additional components. The subtle change of LED driver control signals facilitates the transmission of data from LECDs while simultaneously supporting illumination functions. Lighting controls such as dimming are maintained and combined with modulation through the use of overlapping pulse position modulation (OPPM) and performance is quantified. Prototype buck and boost converters with LECDs are implemented and their efficacy is measured. Though current commercial LEDs are not intended for such signalling applications, we experimentally demonstrate their feasibility in this application and suggest methods to make such converters reliable. It is demonstrated that the addition of an LECD improves the efficacy of the luminaire as compared to conventional LED drivers while simultaneously enabling a VLC downlink.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
