Underwater acoustic(UWA) communication is one of the most difficult field in terms of severe channel environments such as multipath propagation, high temporal and spatial variability of channel conditions. Therefore, it is important to model and analyze the characteristics of underwater acoustic channel such as multipath propagation, transmission loss, reverberation, and ambient noise. In this paper, UWA communication channel is modeled with a ray tracing method and applied to image transmission. Quadrature phase shift keying(QPSK) and multichannel decision feedback equalizer(DFE) are utilized as phase-coherent modulation method and equalization technique, respectively. The objective is to improve the performance of the image transmission using vertical sensor array instead of single sensor in the viewpoint of bit error rate(BER), constellation diagram, and received image quality.

A new demodulation technique which can be used for the fiber optic acoustic sensor system using Sagnac interferometer is described. The theoretical limitation in dynamic range of the quadrature demodulation technique can be removed by the proposed BPSK(Binary Phase Shift Keying) demodulation technique. Full demodulation of input acoustic signal is possible with just simple electronics by eliminating the necessity of the high frequency phase modulation. This technique is suitable for digital signal processing of fiber optic sensor systems and can be applicable for other interferometers.

This study evaluates the performance of an optical receiver for binary phase shift keying (BPSK) signals in the presence of short noise originating from the photo diode and phase noise of the optical source. The case of using I.O. hybrid compare with the fiber optic hybrid to mix received optical signal and laser local oscillator signal. The impact of these noise is minimized if loop natural frequency and power split ratio between data and carrier recovery branch are choosen optimally. Then it is obtained that required laser linewidt to achieve a BER of 10**-9. The results are the same except theat in case of using the fiber optic hybrid the required optical power is twice as much as the I.O. hybrid.

It is known that the Differential Phase Shift Keying (DPSK) modulation scheme in the coherent optical communication system is suitable for design of long-distance transmission system because its receiver performance is 3-5dB better than ASK and FSK. In this paper, we descrive a fundamental understanding of the effects of laser phase noise on the performance of coherent lighwave communication systems. Formulas are derived for the bit error rate in homodyne and heterodyne DPSK. Based on detailed mathematical analysis and estimates, we explain the following finding. DPSK can operates at rates only 300 times greater than the laser linewidth.

A binary continuous phase frequency shift keying (CPFSK), whose phase is a continuous function of time and instantaneous frequency is constant, is a bandwidth efficient constant envelope signalling scheme. A transmitting signal is formed by combined coding of a convolutional encoder and a binary CPFSK modulator. The signal is transmitted throuth additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) channel. If the received signal is detected by a coherent maximum likelihood(ML) receiver, error probability can be expressed approximately in terms of minimum Euclidean distance. We propose rate 2/4 codes for the improvement of error performance without increating the data rate per bandwidth and the receiver complexity. Its minimum Euclidean distances are compared with those of rate \ulcornercodes as a function of modulation index and observation interval.

Telecommunications through an electrically conductive medium require the use of carrier bands with very-low and ultralow frequencies to establish radiofrequency links in harsh environments. Recent advances in atomic magnetometers operating at very-low frequencies have facilitated the reception of digitally modulated signals. We demonstrate the transmission and reception of quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) signals using a multi-resonant loop antenna and atomic magnetometer, respectively. We report the measured error vector magnitude according to the symbol rate for QPSK modulation and analyze the bandwidth of a receiver based on the atomic magnetometer. The multi-resonant loop antenna noticeably enhances the bandwidth by over 70% compared with a single-loop antenna. QPSK modulation for a carrier frequency of 20 kHz and symbol rate of 150 symbols per second verifies the feasibility of demodulation, and the measured error vector magnitude and signal-to-noise ratio are 7.29% and 30.9 dB, respectively.

Underwater images carry information that is useful in the fields of aquaculture, underwater military security, navigation, transportation, and so on. In this research, we transmitted an underwater image through various underwater mediums in the presence of underwater turbulence and beam attenuation effects using a high-speed visible optical carrier signal. The optical beam undergoes scintillation because of the turbulence and attenuation effects; therefore, distorted images were observed at the receiver end. To understand the behavior of the communication media, we obtained the bit error rate (BER) performance of the system with respect to the average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Also, the structural similarity index (SSI) and peak SNR (PSNR) metrics of the received image were evaluated. Based on the received images, we employed suitable nonlinear filters to recover the distorted images and enhance them further. The BER, SSI, and PSNR metrics of the specific nonlinear filters were also evaluated and compared with the unfiltered metrics. These metrics were evaluated using the on-off keying and binary phase-shift keying modulation techniques for the 50-m and 100-m links for beam attenuation resulting from pure seawater, clear ocean water, and coastal ocean water mediums.
