Zusammenfassung: | Underwater microsecond high-current pulsed discharge can generate powerful shock waves and a significant number of active ions, offering a wide range of applications. To analyse the characteristics of plasma channel formed by the discharge, this study established a comprehensive test platform and conducted spectral diagnosis for underwater high-current pulsed discharge. Considering the randomness of the pulsed arc discharge, the voltage and current waveforms under different discharge cases were measured, and the images and emission spectra of the plasma channel were obtained. The origin of the continuous emission of the initial spectra was analysed. A spectral fitting algorithm was proposed, which could separate the spectral lines into line emission of H

and continuous background, and correct the self-absorption. The time-varying characteristics of electron density were obtained under three typical discharge cases, the possible errors caused by baseline shift were considered, and the influencing factors of line broadening were analysed. Under the test conditions of this study, the electron density of plasma channel was in the order of 10
