The past 30 years have seen a growing interest in underwater acoustic communications
because of its applications in marine research, oceanography, marine commercial …

The past three decades have seen a growing interest in underwater acoustic
communications. Continued research over the years has resulted in improved performance …

A blend of introductory material and advanced signal processing and communication
techniques, of critical importance to underwater system and network development This book …

Underwater acoustic channels are fast varying spatially and temporally according to
environmental conditions. Adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) is appealing for …

Underwater acoustic channels are band-limited and reverberant, posing many obstacles to
reliable, phase-coherent acoustic communications. While many high frequency …

Time reversal (TR) exploits spatial diversity to achieve spatial and temporal focusing in
complex environments. Over the last decade, the TR concept has been applied successfully …

Multicarrier modulation in the form of orthogonal-frequency-division-multiplexing (OFDM)
has been intensively pursued for underwater acoustic (UWA) communications recently due …

Acoustic communication often relies on a large size array with multiple spatially separated
hydrophones to deal with the challenging underwater channel. This poses limitation to its …

Extended propagation delay is the major challenge in implementing adaptive modulation
schemes in underwater acoustic communications. Due to the long propagation delay, the …

This paper studies adaptive transmission in an underwater acoustic (UWA) point-to-point
communication system that operates on an epoch-by-epoch basis for a long term. A fixed …
