Abstract

Abstract: The importance of underwater optical communication has increased many fold due to its many inherent advantages such as faster propagation and high bandwidth. The proper design of the transmitter with a suitable modulation format, which can overcome many of the drawbacks of the traditional modulation schemes, is very critical for reliable underwater communication. In this paper, an intensity modulation scheme is proposed, which can be efficiently integrated to LED or non-LED based transmitter for optical underwater communication systems. Scattering model for the optical underwater wireless channel has also been determined in this work, using Monte Carlo simulation method.
