The Navy’s view of connecting the C4ISR network Possible underwater Optical Laser Communications (OLC) architectures supporting a wide range of critical Naval missions An overview of the fundamental physics of the all-underwater and underwater/above-water propagation channel and the impact on communications performance The state of the art in OLC p...
• The “enabling technology” is available NOW CONOPS Must Adapt To Today’s Operational and (Most Importantly) Today’s Fiscal Realities
Two OLC comm modes: (1) all-underwater (terminal-to-terminal), and (2) through the air-water interface (UW terminal comm with an above-water terminal) All-underwater OLC propagation phenomenology and OLC technology can be significantly different than the through-the air/water-interface link Solar background is generally not a dominating noise sourc...
much more dependent on geometry and the environment Requirement for daytime operation drives many of the technology and architecture options (e.g., narrowband optical filters and high peak-power lasers) Generally demands much more SWaP and complicated technology (e.g., SLC) To be efficient (especially daytime), requires collection of multiple scatt...

Anamorphic Tx zoom and Rx FOV correction vs. nadir angle can increase performance substantially for large angles Spatial spreading in clouds reduces received energy/pulse, increases required A/C Rx FOV and complicates scan strategy Water turbidity rapidly degrades SNR (i.e., depth & data rate) attenuated
“Green” littoral water is more turbid than open-ocean “blue” water and generally gets clearer (i.e., “bluer”) with depth Sea state is very much a second order effect and may help at large nadir angles (clear) Multiple scattering in sea water (K & D) defines sub Rx FOV
