Abstract:
An Underwater Wireless Communication System covers the history of diving and underwater communication techniques • Communication system that is used by submarines to communicate with ground station and with each other • How sound is used to navigate underwater and to find submarines • Underwater sound applications including military and commercial application • How data is transferred underwater using sound and what are the limitations • A communication prototype to transfer data underwater using ultrasonic signal • The prototype has an interface with PC that uses an ultrasonic generator and receiver to convert digital data into ultrasound and vice versa • Email can be send from a submarine while it is submerged. Even an Internet facility can be provided • The prototype system interfaces the GPS so that submarines can update their location to head quarters while staying submerged • Two submarines can communicate with each other while stay submerged below 500 meters. Before that the submarines have to come up on the surface to communicate with each other
