We propose and evaluate the performance of a continuous phase modulation based orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CPM-OFDM) transceiver for underwater acoustic communication (UAC). In the proposed technique, the mapper in traditional OFDM is replaced by CPM while a realistic model of underwater channel is employed. Bit error rate (BER) as well as peak to average power ratio (PAPR) performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated using Monte-Carlo simulations. The error performance observed clearly establishes the superiority of CPM-OFDM over traditional OFDM schemes. Specifically, a value of 7/16 or 9/16 for the modulation index gives the best error performance. Furthermore, the error performance of the proposed scheme is within acceptable values up to a transmitter–receiver distance of 1.5 km. Additionally, the PAPR performance of the proposed scheme suggests that like other OFDM schemes, a PAPR reduction scheme is mandatory for acceptable PAPR performance of CPM-OFDM.
