Abstract:
Underwater wireless communication refers to transmitting data in unguided water environment through the use of wireless carriers, i.e., radio-frequency wave, acoustic wave, and optical wave. We focus, in this thesis, on the underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) that employs optical wave as the transmission carriers. In comparison to RF and acoustic counterparts, UWOC has a much higher transmission bandwidth, thus providing much higher data rate. Due to this high-speed transmission advantage, UWOC has attracted considerable attention in recent years. Many potential applications of UW

This thesis studies the modelling and characterisation of underwater optical wireless communication links, particularly short-range diffuse links, by using numerical Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. MC simulation provides a flexible, intuitive and accurate modelling of the underwater channel, which is severely affected by absorption and scattering processes. In diffuse Underwater Optical Wireless Communication (UOWC) links, scattering is expected to have a larger impact on communication link performance due to the wider beam divergence compared to collimated beams.

It serves as a short-distance and full-duplex wireless communication interface between underwater vehicles and humans in a shallow or narrow water environment where acoustic waves show unsatisfied communication performance. This system has two parts: static node and autonomous underwater vehicle node. They all adopt PIN photodiodes as optical receiver. The former uses the high power LED as its transmitter, and the latter was equipped

Abstract:
Approximately, two-thirds of earth's surface is covered by water. There is a growing interest from the military and commercial communities in having, an efficient, secure and high bandwidth underwater wireless communication (UWC) system for tactical underwater applications such as oceanography studies and offshore oil exploration. The existing acoustic and radio frequency (RF) technologies are severely limited in bandwidth because of the strong frequency dependent attenuation of sound in seawater and the high conductivity of seawater at radio frequencies, respectively. Recently, underwater wir

Abstract:
Oceans form about three quarters of our planet Earth, and house immense resources that are critical for future generations. Exploring and monitoring such resources is becoming essential to protect the effected ones by the irresponsible human behavior, and to discover new ones. The limitations of depths mandate the search for alternatives and where human divers become endangered. Using remotely operated vehicles is commonly used for marine explorations, while tethered to ships. To be fully autonomous and to avoid damaging the fragile marine environment, they must be equipped with wireless commu

Abstract:
The means of communication in oceanic environments is currently dominated by sonar. Although it is reliable for long-distance transmission, the vision of internet of underwater things (IoUT) requires an alternate means for high-data-rate transmission. It is also envisaged that a networked underwater and above-water objects, such as sensor nodes, and autonomous underwater vehicles will benefit seafloor exploration. The use of laser-based optical communication is poised to realize this dream while working hand-in-hand with acoustic and radio-frequency technologies from the littoral zone to deep
