Abstract:Underwater communication has become a popular research area because of many applications such as oceanography data collection, ocean exploration, undersea navigation, and control of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). Since electromagnetic wave communication does not propagate well in underwater, long communication ranges are only possible through the use of acoustic waves. Acoustic communication is the most versatile and widely used technique in underwater environments due to the low attenuation (signal re… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
