摘要： A receiver system (100) having at least one receiver(101)for receiving optical communications signals(103b)that encode or transmit information; wherein the receiver system (100) is adapted to produce one or more electrical signals(104)from the received optical signal(103b)and/or from ambient light(103a)such that the receiver system (100) is usable as a source of electrical power and the encoded or transmitted information from the received optical communication signal(103b)is recovered or recoverable from the electrical signal(s)(104). Embodiments of the invention also relate to a communications system(400)that further comprises one or more transmitters(406)and a device having the receiver systems(401), along with associated methods of using and producing. Particular embodiments relate to identification tags(1000)and user devices(300)having a display(301)that at least partially overlaps the receiver(s)(302).

摘要： A communications system having at least one transmitter for transmitting one or more signals and at least one receiver for receiving the one or more signals, wherein the transmitters and/or receivers have an angular dependence, such that at least one response of the receivers to a received signal and/or at least one property of the signals transmitted by the transmitters is angularly dependent; the receiver and transmitter and/or the signals transmitted by the transmitters of two or more transmitter-receiver pairs have a distinct associated angular arrangement or relationship, wherein the at least one angularly dependent response of the receivers to the signal and/or the at least one angularly dependent property of the signal is dependent on the angular arrangement or relationship; and the system is configured to use the angularly dependant property and/or response to identify or discriminate the transmitter from which the signal was transmitted and/or at least one communication channel associated therewith. Associated receivers, transmitters, devices and methods are also provided.
