Abstract :In this study, comparative performance analyzes of single carrier insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(SC); and multi carrier insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MC); underwater acoustic communication insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(UWAC); schemes are performed in underwater acoustic channel environments. Computer simulation studies are carried out to compare SC and MC UWAC communication systems in multi-path underwater acoustic channel environments based on bit error rate insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(BER); and mean square error insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MSE); accomplishment benchmarks. From the acquired outcomes, it is perceived that the MC-UWAC communication scheme has approximately 3 dB better achievement than the SC-UWAC communication scheme.
