Unified Statistical Channel Model for Turbulence-Induced Fading in Underwater Wireless Optical Communication Systems
Unified Statistical Channel Model for Turbulence-Induced Fading in Underwater Wireless Optical Communication Systems
A unified statistical model is proposed to characterize turbulence-induced fading in underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) channels in the presence of air bubbles and temperature gradient for fresh and salty waters, based on experimental data. In this model, the channel irradiance fluctuations are characterized by the mixture exponential-generalized gamma (EGG) …
