Ocean Variability Effects on Underwater Acoustic Communications
Several studies have been conducted in recent years that show correlation between high frequency acoustic fluctuations and environmental parameters. For example, effects of tidally driven temperature fluctuations on underwater coherent acoustic communications were studied for a carrier frequency of 18 kHz [1]. However, the relationship between environmental fluctuations and the performance of c...
متن کاملOn the Practical Aspects of Joint Passive Phase Conjugation and Equalization Underwater Communication Systems
Underwater acoustic communication systems suffer from the channel impairments which results in time spreading of the transmitted signal. In underwater environment, multiple replicas of the transmitted signal are received at the receiver through different paths, which causes significant Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI). Decision Feedback Equalizers (DFE) was utilized to overcome this type of inte...
متن کاملEffect of Underwater Ambient Noise on Quadraphase Phase-shift Keying Acoustic Sensor Network Links in Extremely Low Frequency Band
This study evaluates the impact of underwater ambient noise using seven real noise samples; Dolphin, Rain, Ferry, Sonar, Bubbles, Lightning, and Outboard Motor in three frequency ranges in extremely low frequency (ELF) band. The ELF band is the most significant bandwidth for underwater long-range communication. ELF band which is extended from 3 to 3000 Hz clearly, faces bandwidth limitation. Me...
متن کاملAn underwater acoustic communication scheme exploiting biological sounds
Underwater acoustic (UWA) communications have attracted a lot of interest in recent years motivated by a wide range of applications including offshore oil field exploration and monitoring, oceanographic data collection, environmental monitoring, disaster prevention, and port security. Different signaling solutions have been developed to date including non-coherent communications, phase coherent...
متن کاملImproved Doppler tracking and correction for underwater acoustic communications
The performance of coherent acoustic communication systems involving moving platforms (e.g., underwater vehicles and ships) is adversely effected by Doppler shift resulting from relative motion of the transmitter and receiver. This paper presents a series of innovations which, together, dramatically improve the response to Doppler shift of a widely-used adaptive receiver algorithm. The innovati...
