Abstract | In the last years, Underwater Acoustic (UWA) sensor networks have exponentially grown in many scientific, industrial and research areas. Wireless underwater communications are required in many application fields, such as real time remote control of seabed and oil rigs, monitoring of underwater environments, collecting of scientific data recorded by stations on the seabed, conversation between divers, mapping of the seabed (in order either to detect objects or to discover new resources), prevention of disasters, and many others. In order to allow these applications, the aspect of physical phenomena affecting acoustic communications cannot be neglected. The shallow-water acoustic channel is different from the radio channels in many aspects. The available bandwidth of the UWA channel is limited and it depends on both range and frequency. Within this limited bandwidth, the acoustic signals are affected by time-varying multipath, which may create severe inter symbol interference (ISI) and large Doppler shifts and spreads. These characteristics restrict the range and bandwidth for the reliable communications. Many works have already treated underwater acoustic channel modeling problem, however, at the best of our knowledge, they work only at the bit level and they are not suitable for those contexts in which a high level model is required. For this purpose, our paper discusses about a high level channel model based on Markov Chain approach for the underwater environment. Finite State Markov Model is developed for Packet Error Rate (PER) evaluation in an underwater channel, using the concept of error trace analysis. Some high level models well known in literature are compared to obtain statistical evaluations in order to find the model best fitting the underwater channel dynamics. Simulation and analysis are made in Matlab. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
