Abstract

In this report, the characteristics of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) ultraviolet (UV) overwater communication channels which includes scattering and turbulence effects are modeled using Monte Carlo multiple scattering simulation. The overwater field experimental measurements of turbulence effect and path loss at the distances of up to 1700 meters were reported and analyzed by considering key parameters such as communication distance, transceiver angles, water surface reflection index, along with airborne humidity, and temperature. These channel modeling and experimental results will serve as the foundation for further study of the NLOS UV overwater communication system in shore-to-shore (STS), shore-to-vessel (STV), and vessel-to-vessel (VTV) communication link configurations.
