Abstract

Underwater acoustic channel has time-variability. Time varying channel which disturbs the continuous transmission of information data reduces the underwater acoustic communication performance. In this paper, we show the temporal coherence as time-variability of channel and indicate throughput efficiency in accordance with transmission time of information data. Then we analyzed influence of underwater channel time-variability on communication throughput efficiency. We confirmed that the throughput efficiency reduced when the time-variability of the channel increased via lake trial.

수중음향 채널은 시변적인 특징을 가진다. 채널의 시변동성은 지속적인 정보 데이터 전송을 방해하여 수중음향통신의 신뢰도를 감소시키는 요인이 된다. 본 논문에서는 채널의 시변동성을 시간영역 상관도로 기술하고, 정보 데이터의 실질 전송시간을 스루풋 효율로 표현하였다. 그리고 수중음향 채널의 시변동성이 통신 스루풋 효율에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 실제 수중음향통신 실험을 통하여 수중채널의 시변동성이 클수록 통신의 스루풋 효율도 감소한다는 것을 확인하였다.
