Underwater Wireless Networks

Underwater wireless networks is a research field investigating the principles, protocols, and technologies required for establishing reliable wireless communication and networking among devices deployed in aquatic environments. This domain focuses on addressing the unique challenges posed by underwater channels, such as severe signal attenuation, limited bandwidth, and propagation delays, to support applications in environmental monitoring, resource exploration, and navigation.
