description The present invention uses tunable and fixed frequency lasers as an optical light source in underwater communications systems. This invention provides a high energy, short pulse length laser output which is tunable to or set at a desired wavelength. The tuning is used for performance optimization of the communications systems. An example of performance optimization is the tuning to or setting of the laser at the so-called Jerlov minimum, which is dependent upon the optical characteristics of the particular water used. The system described herein is used as an optical communications downlink employing one or more atomic resonance filter detectors. This invention has the effect of significantly improving the optical signal to noise ratio.
