We designed a photon-counting receiver system for long-distance underwater wireless laser communication at different code rate Reed-Solomon (RS) and low-density parity check (LDPC) codes. The symbol error (SER) performance of the LDPC RS codes with signal-to-noise ratios was analyzed. effects background noise, pulse stretching, frame synchronization were considered in our system. A water tank experiment confirmed that 1/2-code-rate (255,127) is an excellent coding strategy distances range...
