Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the inventor found during the research and development process that when using commercial RGB LEDs to construct a wavelength division multiplexing wireless optical communication system, there can only be three wavelengths of the light source wavelengths at the transmitting end, and the three wavelengths are far apart in the spectrum. To make better use of spectrum resources, the transmission rate and channel capacity of the constructed free-space wavelength division multiplexing system are relatively low
