A study on the long distance data transmission of underwater acoustic sensor

This paper is a study result on long distance transmission of underwater acoustic sensor data over cable. The data transceiver is designed using the LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling) transmission scheme, and the jitter characteristics are analyzed by measuring the long distance transmission signal through the cable. In order to reduce the jitter, a pre-emphasis technique is applied to compensate the transmitting signal to be attenuated by long distance transmission, and the transmission characteristics were verified according to the distance.
