ABSTRACT
This paper discusses the effects of random sea surface and turbulence on the performance of underwater optical wireless communication systems (UOWC). Subcarrier intensity modulation (SIM) is presented as a turbulence resilient modulation technique for UOWC. An underwater channel emulator is used to compare the performance of SIM with different modulation techniques. This work demonstrates the feasibility of UOWC with Gbps transmission rates even in the presence of turbulence.
