Background and Concepts- Current Technology: Acoustic Waves
- Advantages: - Currently commercially available- Viable for long distances at low Bandwidth
- Disadvantages:- Low data rate (~Kbps)- High power/energy requirements (100 bits/J) - Very high latency
![Page 6: Underwater Data Transfer Team 2117](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050600/6272d97edfeb18479870f5ba/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Background and Concepts- Previous Alternative: RF
- Advantages:- Much higher data rate than acoustic (~Mbps)- Lower power usage for close range (mW @ 3m)
- Disadvantages:- Strong attenuation by water (3.5-5 dB/m)- Strong distance dependence for Trans. Power
