Underwater Visible Light Communication using Maritime Channel

An underwater visible light communication (UVLC) system utilizing a maritime channel is proposed. The transmission
system presents a shore-to-undersea communication considering unique properties of both maritime and undersea environments, i.e., wave height, wind speed, absorption and scattering in undersea. Lighthouse transmits the signal using white LED and it will be received by a beacon on the sea surface through maritime channel, then the beacon will relay the signal using green LED to underwater receivers through the undersea channel. Computer simulations were conducted based on the Jonswap (JS) spectrum model and Jerlov water type over various distances for analysis. The simulation result shows BER of 10-6 in 210 m distance after is transmitted through undersea channel
