چکیده

The success of multicarrier modulation in the form of orthogonal-frequency-division-modulation (OFDM) in radio channels illuminates a clear path one could take towards high-rate underwater acoustic communications. However, earlier work on the application of OFDM in underwater has only had limited success. We aim to make OFDM work in underwater and build a practical multicarrier modem prototype. We have worked on four different aspects of this problem.
