Because radio waves decay rapidly in sea water, acoustic communication is the most popular choic for underwater sensor networks. However, since the propagation speed of acoustic w...
Underwater multimedia acoustic sensor networks will enable new underwater applications such as multimedia coastal and tactical surveillance, undersea explorations, picture and vide...
In this work, multi-hop cooperative schemes for underwater sensor networks are studied and shown to be highly energy efficient. Also, the signal model for a multipath channel is d...
There is a growing interest for underwater sensor networks where long term monitoring of water masses around the world for scientific, environmental, commercial, and military reas...
