This study investigates laser communication performance in varied water quality, suggesting improvements through a new calibration device.
To investigate the influence of different water quality conditions on the underwater transmission performance of laser communication signals, this paper systematically analyzes the absorption and scattering characteristics of the underwater laser communication channel, and constructs a transmission model of laser propagation in water, so as to explore the transmission influence mechanism under typical water quality environments. On this basis, a system of in situ measurements for underwater laser channel attenuation is designed and constructed, and several sets of experiments are carried out to verify the rationality and applicability of the model. The collected experimental data are denoised by the fusion of wavelet analysis and adaptive Kalman filtering (DWT-AKF in short) algorithm, and compared with the data measured by an underwater hyperspectral Absorption Coefficient Spectrophotometer (ACS in short), which shows that the channel attenuation coefficients of the model inversion and the measured values are in high agreement. The research results provide a reliable theoretical basis and experimental support for the performance optimization and engineering design of the underwater laser communication system.
