TODO - The performance of an underwater optical wireless communication link is
investigated by taking into account-for the first time and to the best
of our knowledge-the simultaneous influence of the chromatic dispersion,
the time jitter and the turbulence effects, by assuming chirped
longitudinal Gaussian pulse propagation as information carriers. The
estimation procedure is presented and a novel probability density
function is extracted in order to describe the irradiance fluctuations
at the receiver side. Furthermore, the availability of the link is
investigated by means of its probability of fade and various numerical
results are presented using typical parameters for the underwater
optical wireless communication systems.
