A visible light communication system is provided. The communication system includes at least one of a FFD and a visible light communication light source, and a RFD, wherein the visible light communication light source is configured to carry data information in a visible light signal and send the visible light signal; the RFD is in communication with the FFD and/or in communication with the visible light communication light source, and is configured to receive the visible light signal and demodulate the received visible light signal to recover data information; and the FFD is configured to achieve at least one of the following functions: the function of the visible light communication light source, the function of the RFD, and a function for forwarding the received visible light signal. In the present invention, the technical problem that visible light resources cannot be used fully because there is no network structure used for the visible light communications in the conventional art is solved, thereby achieving the technical effect of improving the utilization rate of the visible light.
