We propose an encryption technique for underwater visible light communication (UVLC) based on chaotic phase scrambling (PS) and conjugate frequency hopping (CFH). The technique is experimentally tested using an 8-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-8) and a 1.2 m underwater link. The security key of the phase scrambling code is generated according to a logistic map, and the frequency hopping is achieved by adding the same zero frequency points to the signal spectrum. The maximum transmission rate of 2.1 Gbit/s is measured with bit-error-rate (BER) below 7% the hard-decision forward error correction (HD-FEC) threshold of 3.8×10-3.
