Underwater wireless networks consist of mobile and static nodes, which usually communicate using the acoustic channel since radio transmissions attenuate rapidly and optical commun...
—Unlike terrestrial wireless communication which uses radio waves, underwater communication relies on acoustic waves. The long latency and limited bandwidth pose great challenges...
A phase synchronizationmethod, which provides non-uniform frequency offset compensation needed for wideband OFDM [1], is coupled with low-complexity channel estimation in the time...
Underwater acoustic communications systems are challenged by the characteristics of acoustic propagation through the underwater environment. There are a wide range of physical pro...
—Due to the half-duplex property of the underwater acoustic channels, the classic stop-and-wait ARQ (SW-ARQ) and its variants are generally thought to be the only class of ARQ pr...
