Micro-modem for short-range underwater communication systems

ABSTRAKSistem komunikasi suara bawah air telah dikenal sejak lama, diantaranya sonar dan akustik. Seiring perkembangan zaman dan kemajuan teknologi, kini hadir komunikasi dengan media transmisi cahaya tampak yaitu Visible Light Communication (VLC) yang dapat diterapkan pada komunikasi bawah air. Pada penelitian ini telah dilakukan komunikasi suara bawah air (simplex) menggunakan VLC, dengan media akuarium berisi air dan beberapa pengujian diantaranya menggunakan color filter, didapat hasil pengujian terbaik yaitu tegangan 4,4 Vpp dan frekuensi 3,003 kHz untuk color filter yellow, pengujian menggunakan lensa didapat hasil pengujian terbaik yaitu tegangan 4,4 Vp-p dan frekuensi 3,051 kHz untuk lensa (+50), dan pengujian terakhir menggunakan lampu UV didapat hasil pengujian terbaik dengan tegangan 4,4 Vp-p dan frekuensi 3,010 kHz. Implementasi sistem VLC ini menunjukkan hasil yang baik dan layak untuk diterapkan pada komunikasi suara bawah air (simplex).Kata kunci: VLC, Komunikasi Suara Bawah Air, Simplex.

AbstractTime-reversal mirror (TRM) was recently developed for underwater communication system application. This technique has been introduced as an approach to compensate for signal distortion due to multiple path effect in ocean waveguide. TRM is used in this paper for sending a message signal in ocean waveguide, received at time-reversal-array (TRA), and retransmitted to the dynamic ocean environment with an internal solitary wave. The focal structures obtained from different simulating cases are used for bidirectional transmission expediency, and the TRA is used as the relay-line or trunked radio. Ocean waveguide characteristic effects on acoustical properties are also shown in this paper, and focal structure in different ocean environments is analyzed to provide an optimal approach to underwater communication systems and for physical insight's interests.
