This project is intended to support the deployment of an underwater communication network, that is multi-hop and multi-modal. It relies on the combination of acoustic propagation and magnetic-induction to send the information from a remote instrument through a set of relay nodes and to a destination. To enable end-to-end transmission over a secured link, secured […]

Integrating a towed array (which consists of a very long tow cable and a line array of sensors) with an unmanned platform requires unattended operation of the array during deployment, operation and recovery. The objective of the proposed work is to create and demonstrate a towed array handling system on an unmanned platform which can […]
