Abstract

The frequency response model for the underwater wireless optical communication channel is obtained using the discrete ordinates method based on vector radiative transfer theory. And the performance of a 1Gb/s communication system with M-ary PPM has been evaluated by applying this frequency response model. The results show that with the increase of transmission distance the bit-error-rate performance degrades, and the field of view (FOV) has a different behaviour in terms of bit-error-rate performance as distance increases. In short distance, with the increase of FOV the bit-error-rate performance degrades, and in long distance, it is opposite. The 4-PPM bit-error-rate performance is almost equal to that of OOK modulation. 8-PPM or 16-PPM can be used to get more improvement in bit-error-rate performance and higher power efficiency.
