Abstract
We present a broad review of the optical wireless field, from early experiments through to today's high-performance systems. Emphasis is placed on understanding the benefits and limitations of optical wireless, all of which ultimately define the applications. A variety of systems are examined, each incorporating a different technological solution to suit the particular application.Keywords
