Abstract

Anon-line-of-sight (NLOS) underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) channel based on Monte Carlo simulation and Henyey-Greenstein model is presented. Performance of underwater (UW) system is analyzed for different water types and receiver field-of-view (FOV) based on path loss. The simulated results show that NLOS model gives a satisfactory and more realistic approach towards understanding highly UW channel. For simplicity, on-off keying (OOK) modulation scheme is used.
