Multiuser chirp modulation for underwater acoustic channel based on VTRM
In this paper, an ascheme is proposed for multiuser underwater acoustic communication by using the multi-chirp rate signals. It differs from the well known TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access), FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access) or CDMA (Code ...

Chemically Programmable Underwater Sound‐Absorbing Metamaterial via MXene Self‐Assembly
MXene self‐assembly creates a chemically programmable underwater metamaterial with quasi‐periodic layers and a chemical‐physical multi‐level constraint system. A crosslinker as a ‘chemical scissor’ precisely edits microscopic interactions, exciting deep‐subwavelength strong local resonances that induce near‐zero/negative effective bulk modulus (Keff ...

STLFM Signal Based Adaptive Synchronization for Underwater Acoustic Communications
In underwater acoustic communications (UAC), signal synchronization plays a key role in the performance. It is usually performed using a known preamble transmitted prior to the data. However, the underwater acoustic (UWA) channel is characterized as time-

Underwater Communication Using Acoustic Parametric Arrays [PDF]
This paper presents a study of different types of parametric signals with application to submarine acoustic telecommunications. In all of them, the carrier frequency is 200 kHz, which corresponds to that resonation of the transducer under study, while they differ by the different modulations they present. In this sense, we study modulations with sweeps

Bistable Networks Enable Complex Shape Changes
Transition‐controlled metamaterials are networks of bistable mechanical memory that store local binary states and express them as global shape change. By decoupling low‐force programming from high‐force holding, a single lattice is reconfigured into distinct 2D profiles and 3D surfaces without continuous actuation, enabling reusable morphing materials ...
