1. A visible light communication system including a transmission device which transmits a visible light signal and a reception device which receives the visible light signal, the transmission device comprising:
- light emission means for emitting visible lights of red, green and blue;
data modulation means for assigning 1-bit information to each of the visible lights and modulating transmission data into 3-bit modulation data; and
transmission control means for driving and controlling the light emission means in accordance with the modulation data which is output from the data modulation means, and transmitting a multiplexed visible light signal, in which the visible lights are multiplexed, from the light emission means.

Abstract
In a visible light communication system, a transmission device includes a data modulation section which assigns 1-bit information to each of visible lights of RGB, and modulates transmission data into 3-bit modulation data. An LED light emission section transmits a multiplexed visible light signal, in which the RGB visible lights are multiplexed in accordance with the modulation data.
