We have pursued, through parallel efforts, analytical modelling of light propagation through oceanic turbulence, conception and validation of turbulence characterization methods, and construction of "wavefront sensorless" adaptive optics for underwater communications.enunderwater wireless optical communicationsoceanic turbulencescintillation004670conference paper
