In this paper, the Monte Carlo method is employed to simulate the ultraviolet light scattering transmission. The three modes of ultraviolet (UV) no-line-of-sight (NLOS) communication are analyzed. The UV NLOS transmission model based on the Monte Carlo method is proposed. The path losses of single and multiple scatterings and the coverage area of three UV NLOS modes are simulated by using the Monte Carlo method. Finally, we obtain the conclusion that multiple scattering and single scattering basically have the same path loss. The coverage of NLOS (a) is smallest, but omni-direction is good. The coverage of NLOS (b) is larger, but it is directional. The coverage of NLOS (c) is largest, but it is strongly directional.
