Designing Bandwidth-Efficient High-Speed Underwater Acoustic Communication Systems with Block-by-Block Turbo Processing [ 2010 - 2012 ]

Research Grant

Researchers Dr DD Huang; Dr Q Guo

Brief description Australia has one of the largest exclusive economic zones in the world, and it is vitally important for Australia to understand and benefit from the oceans. This project will give new perspectives in developing underwater acoustic communications that are important for marine industries and scientific research in areas such as the exploration and exploitation of offshore oil and gas, and ocean environment and climate monitoring. This project will lift the international profile of Australia in underwater acoustic communications research and, through the training of early career researchers and PhD students, this project will also develop a skills base for Australia in underwater acoustic communications.
