Abstract

In the marine medium, factors such as absorption scattering effects and turbulence impose limitations on the performance of UWOC systems. To ensure the reliability of UWOC systems and further increase the link distance, several techniques to enhance the performance of UWOC systems have been proposed. The first part of this chapter introduces the definition of system diversity, the second part introduces multiplexing and multiple access techniques, and finally, the definition of relaying techniques is briefly described.
