Thermocline layer have remarkable effects on acoustic propagation in Persian Gulf environment. So far, no comprehensive research has been conducted to explore thermocline layer, especially its characteristics including top, thickness, and thermal gradient of thermocline in Persian Gulf. Besides, effects of thermocline on underwater acoustic propagation including transmission loss and sound chan...

The field of underwater acoustic networking is growing rapidly thanks to the key role it plays in many military and commercial applications. Among these are disaster prevention, tactical surveillance, offshore exploration, pollution monitoring and oceanographic data collection. The underwater acoustic propagation channel presents formidable challenges, including slow propagation of acoustic wav...

underwater acoustic wireless sensor network (uawsn) use acoustic signalsto transmit data. acoustic signals in underwater environment have high bit errorrate, long propagation delay and limited bandwidth. another constraint in uwasnis energy. due to these constraints, design of energy and bandwidth efficient andpropagation delay aware mac protocol is a great challenge in uwasn.underwater sensor ...

Ad hoc underwater acoustic networks represent a very challenging field in digital communications due to the extreme nature of the underwater acoustic channel and also the requirement to meet critical needs in order to establish long range propagation, decentralisation and reliability. As a fact the underwater acoustic communications speed is five times less than the magnitude of the radio waves...

In this paper approach for the underwater sensor network based on the blue-green laser has been proposed. We describe the application of the underwater sensor network in the undersea exploration, and discuss the difficulties in the traditional underwater sensor network. A basic of prototype of underwater laser sensor network has been advanced, which include the architecture of laser network and...

Underwater Acoustic Wireless Sensor Network (UAWSN) uses acoustic signals to transmit data. Acoustic signals in underwater environment have high bit error rate, long propagation delay and limited bandwidth. Another constraint in UWASN is energy. Due to these constraints, design of energy and bandwidth efficient and propagation delay aware MAC protocol is a great challenge in UWASN. Underwater s...

In recent years, underwater acoustic wireless sensor networks have been used in many areas. There have been many field trials of acoustic propagation models and statistics for shallow water conditions. However, field trials are limited environmentally and, hence, not widely accepted. Simulations of the impulse response of a shallow underwater acoustic channel allows less expensive system tests ...
