Cellular Underwater Wireless Optical CDMA Network: Potentials and Challenges

Non-line-of-sight underwater optical wireless communication network.

The growing need for ocean observation systems has stimulated considerable interest within the research community in advancing the enabling technologies of underwater wireless communication and underwater sensor networks. Sensors and ad hoc sensor networks are the emerging tools for performing extensive data-gathering operations on land, and solutions in the subsea setting are being sought. Eff...

Underwater Wireless Communication Network

The research of Underwater Acoustic Networks (UANs) is attracting attention due to their important underwater applications for military and commercial purposes. Underwater wireless communication networks (UWCNs) consist of sensors and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) that interact, coordinate and share information with each other to carry out sensing and monitoring functions. In last sever...

Emerging Optical CDMA Techniques and Applications

In this paper we present an in-depth review on the trends and the directions taken by the researchers worldwide in Optical Code Division Multiple Access (OCDMA) systems. We highlight those trends and features that are believed to be essential to the successful introduction of various OCDMA techniques in communication systems and data networks in near future. In particular we begin by giving a c...

Underwater Wireless Sensor Network Localization

This paper reviews the existing localization techniques and parameters in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and few schemes are discussed in term of Terrestrial WSNs. The fundamental differences between Underwater and Terrestrial WSN are highlighted. Furthermore, the paper analyzes the few existing aquatic localization schemes and presents a discussion in two parts including general localization ...
