Achievable Information Rate Enhancement of Visible Light Communication Using Probabilistically Shaped OFDM Modulation

We experimentally demonstrate a visible light communication (VLC) system based on the probabilistically shaped (PS) OFDM modulation. The overall achievable information rate (AIR) can be improved by 13.6% in comparison with conventional bit-loading scheme.
