The ocean covers nearly two-thirds of the surface on the Earth, and there has been great
interest in developing underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) to help us explore the …

Driven by the huge demand to explore oceans, underwater wireless communications have
been rapidly developed in the past few decades. Due to the complex physical characteristics …

Due to harsh aqueous environments, non-negligible node mobility and large network scale,
localization for large-scale mobile underwater sensor networks is very challenging. In this …

Flexible/adaptive acoustic modems that are reprogrammable/reconfigurable at all layers of
the communication stack, either by a user or by means of autonomous decisions, are …

In this paper we discuss issues related to the design of underwater acoustic network
protocols which are tailored around, and leverage on, the differences between underwater …

Ocean and water basically cover the major parts of our planet. To obtain the best utilization
of the underlying resources on these parts of the Earth, people have made some research …

Underwater wireless sensor Networks (UWSN) will provide a variety of attractive working
fields such as aquaculture, offshore exploitation, biological monitoring as well as water and …

This paper is focused on the description of the physical layer of a new acoustic modem
called ITACA. The modem architecture includes as a major novelty an ultra-low power …

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) provides an effective approach to
combat multipath with high bandwidth efficiency for underwater acoustic communication …

Underwater acoustic communication networks are becoming focus of active research due to
