The use of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing with adaptive bit and power loading results in a peak data rate of 1041 Mb/s. The photovoltaic receiver is shown to offer simultaneous power harvesting with 41.6% efficiency under the irradiance of 0.3 W/cm2 and a data rate of 784 Mb/s.enPhotovoltaikLaser Power ConverterOFDMphotonic power converterPower-by-Lightsimultaneous power and data transmissionwireless communicationWireless PowerPhotovoltaikIII-V- und Konzentrator-Photovoltaik621697Free Space Optical Link for Simultaneous Power and 1 Gb/s Data Transmissionconference paper
