Abstract
In underwater direct current-biased optical orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (DCO-OFDM) system, high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) brings in-band distortion and out-of-band power. It also decreases the signal-to-quantization noise ratio of the analog-to-digital converter and the digital-to-analog converter. A time–frequency-domain interleaved subbanding scheme is proposed to reduce the PAPR of underwater DCO-OFDM system with low computation complexity and bit error rate (BER). The system BER is evaluated by the distances of the underwater optical wireless communication (UOWC), as well as by the signal attenuation of the UOWC channel. A least-square channel estimation method is adopted for adaptive power amplification at the receiver side, to further decrease the system BER.
