- Abstract
Currently, the demand for long-range underwater communication (UWC) is increasing. Conventional long-range UWC studies utilize vertical line array (VLA) and equalization techniques such as TRM and DFE to mitigate the long multi-path delay. However, recently developed underwater platforms such as unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) utilize a single hydrophone, and it is hard to apply the conventional long-range UWC system to these platforms. This paper proposes frequency shifting-based modulation to overcome the large multi-path delay without any optimization or training symbol. Unlike FSK, the proposed modulation method transmits the data using linear frequency modulation (LFM). The proposed demodulation method estimates the multi-path delay using data-modulated LFM and utilizes the estimated multi-path to compensate for the subsequent data signal. Therefore, the proposed method has better BER performance than FSK, and it is demonstrated through a simulation and ocean experiment with a single hydrophone.
