The implementation of through-water high-speed acoustic communication using linear and circular beamforming arrays

This thesis will describe the work undertaken towards the implementation of an acoustic communication system capable of reliable, high-speed data transmission over long ranges in both horizontal and vertical channels of water, using both linear and circular beamforming arrays and adaptive receiver t...
