Capacity of Underwater Wireless Communication Channel with Different Acoustic Propagation Loss Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we calculate the capacity of a point-to-point communication link in an underwater acoustic channel. The analysis takes into account the effects of various acoustic propagation loss models. A physical model of ambient noise power spectral density is also considered. We perform a comparative assessment of the influence of various acoustic transmission loss models on the acoustic bandwidth and the capacity.
