A new method to count the expected value and variance of time dispersion is presented for time dispersion of underwater optical wireless communication. Instead of the typically used Gamma distribution, inverse-Gaussian distribution is suggested for underwater optical impulse response time waveform function. The expectation of this method is in good agreement with experimental data. Future works may include water absorption to the model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
