Abstract:
An illumination light communication apparatus includes: a light source; a power supply circuit; a switching element which modulates an output current supplied from the power supply circuit to the light source; a visible light communication signal circuit which controls ON and OFF of the switching element to output a modulating signal for superimposing a visible light beacon signal including a unique ID onto the illumination light emitted from the light source; a control power supply circuit which supplies power to the visible light communication signal circuit; a wireless module which transmits a radio wave beacon signal including a unique ID; and a radio wave beacon controlling and transmitting circuit which controls the radio wave beacon signal transmitted from the wireless module, wherein the radio wave beacon controlling and transmitting circuit is supplied with power from the control power supply circuit.
