description | This study proposes a novel optical wireless communication system for high-speed, large-capacity data transmission, supporting underwater IoT devices in shallow seas. The system employs a mirror-equipped aerial drone as a relay between underwater drones and a terrestrial station, using 850 nm optical signals for low atmospheric loss and enhanced confidentiality. Adaptive modulation optimizes transmission capacity based on SNR, accounting for air and underwater channel characteristics. Experiments confirmed an exponential SNR decrease with distance (0.6–1.8 m) and demonstrated successful 4K UHD video streaming in shallow seawater (turbidity: 2.2 NTU) without quality loss. The design ensures cost-effectiveness and stable optical alignment using advanced posture control. |
