In this Letter, we propose a flexible bandwidth compression scheme for visible light communication (VLC) systems employing multi-band carrierless amplitude and phase (CAP) modulation. The scheme combines a narrow filtering for every subband at the transmitter and an N-symbol look-up-table (LUT) based maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE) at the receiver. The N-symbol LUT is generated by recording pattern-dependent distortions induced by inter-symbol-interference (ISI), inter-band-interference (IBI), and the other channel effects upon the transmitted signal. The idea is experimentally demonstrated on a 1 m free space optical transmission platform. The results show that the proposed scheme can improve the subband overlap tolerance up to 42% in subband overlapping scenarios, that is, 3 bit/s/Hz, which is the highest spectral efficiency (SE) among the experimented schemes.
