In this paper, a novel visible light communication (VLC) and three-dimensional (3D) positioning (VLP) algorithm based on spatial modulation (SM) with dimming capability is proposed. With the help of the signal and pilot symbols observed by a user with two photodetectors (PD) on the receiver, the detection of the transmitted data with the estimated channel and dimming coefficients is performed, and at the same time, the position of the user represented in 3D is determined. The computer simulations conclude that the root mean square (RMS) values of the proposed algorithm in 3D position determination are very low, and the bit error rate (BER) performance is very high.
