초록

전송되는 정보들의 가로채기 확률을 감소시키기 위한 피감청 기술 중 대표적인 대역확산통신 기법을 적용함으로써 통신 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 이를 통해 최적의 은밀 수중음향통신 시스템의 모델을 제안한다. 대역확산 통신 된 신호의 레벨이 낮아져 주변의 배경소음과 같은 레벨로 전송하기 때문에 피탐지 확률이 감소하고 은밀성의 특징을 갖게 된다. 본 논문에서는 BCJR(Bahl, Cocke, Jelinek, Raviv) 복호방법과 대역 확산 기법 중 직접 수열 대역 확산 기법을 적용하였으며, 은밀 수중 통신에서 고려되는 송수신 모델은 크게 두 가지로 나뉘는데, 경판정 기반의 송수신 모델과 반복기반의 터보 등화 모델의 성능을 시뮬레이션과 호수 실험을 통해 성능을 비교 분석하였다.

Researches for oceans are limited to military purpose such as underwater sound detection and tracking system. Underwater acoustic communications with low-probability-of-interception (LPI) covert characteristics were received much attention recently. Covert communications are conducted at a low received signal-to-noise ratio to prevent interception or detection by an eavesdropper. This paper proposed optimal covert communication model based on direct sequence spread spectrum for underwater environments. Spread spectrum signals may be used for data transmission on underwater acoustic channels to achieve reliable transmission by suppressing the detrimental effect of interference and self-interference due to jamming and multipath propagation. The characteristics of the underwater acoustic channel present special problems in the design of covert communication systems. To improve performance and probability of interception, we applied BCJR(Bahl, Cocke, Jelinek, Raviv) decoding method and the direct sequence spread spectrum technology in low SNR. Also, we compared the performance between conventional model and proposed model based on turbo equalization by simulation and lake experiment.
