BER variations versus the anisotropic factor are examined when the bandwidth, photodetector responsivity, load resistor and the underwater turbulence parameters are varied. As anisotropy in the underwater channel becomes larger, SIM BPSK OWC links have better BER performance at any link and turbulence parameter.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessOptical Wireless CommunicationUnderwater TurbulenceAnisotropyModulationBPSKSIMArticle10.1080/09500340.2019.1682208
