<br/><br/> There has been a growing interest in using indoor optical wireless communication (OWC) systems   for   both   illumination   and   communication   purposes.   One   practical   system parameter  of  an  indoor  OWC  system  is  its  data  transmission  coverage  distance.  This research study attempts to quantify the coverage distance by modeling white light emitting diodes  (LEDs)  using  the  commercial  software  ASAP,  which  performs  ray  tracing  from light  sources  to  optical  receivers.  Using  the  3-dB  power reduction  as  the  criterion  to quantify  the  coverage  distance,  an  optimal  LED  separation  of  a  transmit  LED  panel  is specified.
