An autonomous underwater vehicle and SUNSET to bridge underwater networks composed of multi-vendor modems
Nowadays, underwater acoustic communication is an interesting topic of research. This is especially true in the case of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs): due to the limitations of the underwater environment, where WiFi and radio communications are limited, it is very important to rely on efficient and reliable tools for acoustic data exchange. Indeed, an underwater network of acoustic nodes can enhance the navigation and localization capabilities of one or more vehicles.
