contents Image sensor communication (ISC) employing a propeller-LED transmitter encodes data along rotating light trails. We present an analytical framework that (i) constructs a single-LED, single-blink light trail model that maps optical power to pixel values, and (ii) integrates a probabilistic noise model to derive a closed-form bit-error rate (BER) using the $Q$-function. Trimodal pixel-value histograms motivate an adjacent-only inter-symbol interference (ISI) model in which the decision at segment $j$ depends on adjacent segments. Applying a hardest-pair midpoint threshold yields per-segment BER and a general BER after marginalization. We further provide practical sufficiency conditions under which adjacent-only ISI is adequate, and validate its tightness against Monte Carlo simulations and experimental results. Using the analytical BER, we select the control angle that maximizes throughput while satisfying a target BER reliability constraint.
