- Abstract
- In shallow water communication channel, acoustic interactions with sea surface and bottom interfaces cause the inter-symbol interference that hinders the efficient and reliable communication. In this case, signal-to-multipath ratio (SMR) rather than signal-to-noise ratio can be used as an indicator to describe the quality of the communication channel. However, it is difficult to estimate precisely the SMR from the measured communication data. In this talk, we propose the energy fraction of the channel impulse response existing within one symbol duration as an alternative to SMR. Communication experiment was conducted on the southern coast of Korea in waters 45 m deep in source-receiver ranges of 100 m to 1 km. The Bit-error-rate performance is compared to the energy fraction in one symbol duration. In addition, the correlation between the energy fraction in a symbol and SMR is investigated trough a Monte Carlo simulation. © 2013 Acoustical Society of America.
