Underwater Acoustic Networks:
Introduction Underwater Acoustic Networks (UANs) are a critical technology for enabling communication in environments where traditional wireless or wired communication systems are ineffective. In oceans, seas, lakes, and rivers, traditional radio frequency (RF) signals are absorbed by water and cannot travel efficiently over long distances. Acoustic waves, however, can propagate through water, providing a means […]
UNDERWATER ACOUSTIC NETWORKS
INTRODUCTION Underwater Acoustic Networks (UANs) are wireless communication networks that use sound waves (acoustics) instead of radio or optical signals to transmit data underwater. They are essential for underwater surveillance, oceanographic data collection, and military applications. KEY TECHNOLOGIES 1. Acoustic Modems 2. Network Topologies 3. Communication Protocols 4. Sensors & Nodes 5. Signal Processing & […]
