Underwater sensor networks are anticipated to facilitate numerous commercial and military applications. Moreover, precise self-localization in practical underwater scenario is a crucial challenge in sensor networks because of the complexity…
Having accurate localization capabilities is one of the fundamental requirements of autonomous robots. For underwater vehicles, the choices for effective localization are limited due to limitations of GPS use in water and poor environmental…
Underwater data infrastructures offer natural cooling and enhanced physical security compared to terrestrial facilities, but their storage systems remain susceptible to acoustic injection attacks, where sound-induced mechanical vibrations…
Over the course of the last decade, the cost of marine robotic platforms has significantly decreased. In part this has lowered the barriers to entry of exploring and monitoring larger areas of the earth's oceans. However, these advances…
Accurate underwater localization remains a challenge for inexpensive autonomous platforms that require highfrequency position updates. In this paper, we present a robust, low-cost localization pipeline for buoyancy-driven microFloats…
Efficiently receiving underwater sound remotely from air is a long-standing challenge in acoustics hindered by the large impedance mismatch at the water-air interface. Here we introduce and experimentally demonstrate a technique for remote…
Key challenges in developing underwater acoustic localization methods are related to the combined effects of high reverberation in intricate environments. To address such challenges, recent studies have shown that with a properly designed…
As the dominant information carrier in water, acoustic wave is widely used for underwater detection, communication and imaging. Even though underwater acoustic communication has been greatly improved in the past decades, it still suffers…
Localization of underwater networks is important in many military and civil applications. Because GPS receivers do not work below the water surface, traditional localization methods form a relative topology of underwater nodes (UWNs) and…
Conventional approaches to sound localization and separation are based on microphone arrays in artificial systems. Inspired by the selective perception of human auditory system, we design a multi-source listening system which can separate…
This paper describes a new kind of acoustic metasurface with multiply resonant units, which have previously been used to induce multiple resonances and effectively produce negative mass density and bulk/shear moduli. The proposed acoustic…
The research presented in this paper is aimed at developing a control algorithm for an autonomous surface system carrying a two-sensor array consisting of two acoustic receivers, capable of measuring the time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) of…
Underwater acoustic technologies are a key component for exploring the behavior of marine megafauna such as sea turtles, sharks, and seals. The animals are marked with acoustic devices (tags) that periodically emit signals encoding the…
Since its inception, underwater digital acoustic communication has required custom hardware that neither has the economies of scale nor is pervasive. We present the first acoustic system that brings underwater messaging capabilities to…
In this paper, we present the acoustic transceiver developed for the positioning system in underwater neutrino telescopes. These infrastructures are not completely rigid and need a positioning system in order to monitor the position of the…
Acoustic local positioning systems (ALPSs) are an interesting alternative for indoor positioning due to certain advantages over other approaches, including their relatively high accuracy, low cost, and room-level signal propagation.…
Underwater acoustic localization has traditionally been challenging due to the presence of unknown environmental structure and dynamic conditions. The problem is richer still when such structure includes occlusion, which causes the loss of…
The emergence of water-proof mobile and wearable devices (e.g., Garmin Descent and Apple Watch Ultra) designed for underwater activities like professional scuba diving, opens up opportunities for underwater networking and localization…
In this paper, we study the underwater acoustic localization in the presence of environmental mismatch. Especially, we exploit a pre-trained neural network for the acoustic wave propagation in a gradient-based optimization framework to…
Metasurfaces are a family of novel wavefront shaping devices with planar profile and subwavelength thickness. Acoustic metasurfaces with ultralow profile yet extraordinary wave manipulating properties would be highly desirable for improving…
