This letter reports the first experimental results obtained from a recently proposed single‐photodiode receiver for visible light communications (VLC) using color shift keying (CSK) modulation. This novel detection scheme has the potential to reduce the implementation cost by two‐thirds compared to the CSK‐based receiver structure introduced in the VLC IEEE 802.15.7 standard. A proof of concept is performed to demonstrate its practical feasibility and advantages towards the deployment of VLC systems. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
