In this paper, we propose a receiver designing principle for the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) visible light communication (VLC) systems with quadrichromatic light emitting diodes (QLEDs). To simultaneously transmit multiple data streams, the system consists of multiple QLEDs and multiple receivers; each includes four photodiodes (PDs). We optimize the Euclidean distance of the received signal over some constraints by considering the normal vectors of the receivers. The numerical results show that our proposed receiver design has a better bit error rate (BER) performance in comparison with the conventional receiver.
