This fact allows data transmission using modulation formats such as OnOff Keying (OOK) and Color Shift Keying (CSK). Since, CSK based on three color bands uses red, green, and blue monochromatic LED (RGBLED) to define a pattern of chromaticities; this type of CSK provides poor color quality on the illuminated area. In this work, we present the design and implementation of a VLC system using RGBbased CSK with 16, 8, and 4 color points, mixing with a steady baseline of a phosphor whiteLED, to improve the color quality of the LEDFixture. The experimental system was assessed in terms of the Symbol Error Rate (SER) and the Color Rendering Index (CRI). Good color quality performance of the LEDFixture was obtained with an acceptable SER. We describe the laboratory setup used to characterize and calibrate an LEDFixture. </abstract> <index>Open Science Index 202, 2023</index> </article>
