Abstract
In this article, we designed an experimental system for underwater wireless optical communications. A function generation device sent frequencies (1–500 kHz) by amplitude shift key modulation technology, and these frequencies were loaded over light-emitting diode to propagate through a glass water tank with a length of 1 m, width of 40 cm, and height of 30 cm containing clean water of 80 L. These frequencies were received by a photodiode (BPX61), and the received signal was displayed through a digital storage oscilloscope device. Four techniques, single input–single output (SISO), single input–multiple output, multiple input–single output, and multiple input–multiple output (MIMO), were applied under the same optical conditions to know the quality of receiving the optical signal and the difference between them. Finally, the parameter values of signal-to-noise ratio, peak-to-peak voltage, and voltage gain were checked for each technique, and they were the lowest values for the SISO technique and the highest values for the MIMO technique.
