Predicting the performance of a dual-band bi-directional transceiver for shallow water deployments

Published:24 October 2016Publication History

ABSTRACT

In this work, a bi-directional transceiver with a maximum throughput of 24 kbps is presented. The spatio-temporal shallow water channel characteristics between a projector and a hydrophone array are analyzed in a seawater tank, and a methodology to maintain a 10−4 probability of bit error with prior knowledge of the channel statistics is proposed. Also, it is found that flow generated in the sea water provides a realistic representation of time-varying propagation conditions, particularly for the reverse link communication link at 22.5 kHz.
