Abstract

In order to research the shallow underwater communication system further and conveniently, the paper study the characteristics of underwater acoustic propagation and choose “Ray Model” as the simulation. Then we describe this model from the point of geometry and analyze some parameters of shallow underwater acoustic communication. According to these factors, the received signal delay and loss can be calculated and the received signal can also be expressed. This paper uses the technique of adaptive equalization to solve the serious Inter symbol interference (ISI) from the multi-path signals by giving principles and formulas of the least mean square (LMS) error algorithm. Finally, the shallow underwater acoustic channel model can be simulated by MATLAB in 2ASK modulation. In the results of simulation, the severe ISI can be observed in the received signal and can be eliminated by equalization. We also get the bit error rate curve successfully. This simulation can provide the foundation for other underwater acoustic communication researches and works.
