Experimental Demonstration and Evaluation of BCH-Coded UWOC Link for Power-Efficient Underwater Sensor Nodes
The proposed BCH-coded system needs a reasonable amount of computing capability and is powered by a battery, enabling the node to have an on-site data processing unit and untethered communication. The encoder and decoder algorithms of the BCH code are implemented on the Embedded C software and coded to run on an Atmel ATmega128A micro-controller. The system’s performance is evaluated by emulating the effects of scattering and absorption, noise due to surrounding and ambient light, turbidity, air bubbles, and turbulence in a natural underwater environment.
