Performance of optical wireless communication (OWC) systems can be optimised using constant optical power transmission in conjunction with forward error control coding. A new family of constant power error correcting codes using multiple pulse position modulation optical transmission are introduced. This doubly featured technique may extend the capability of many difficult wireless optical links beyond their existing barriers and may enable a higher error performance for OWC networks. The potential and design of look-up table codes are investigated. The Monte Carlo methods provide supportive data for the performance and code word search.
