    • Secure underwater acoustic networks: current and future research directions 

      Lal, Chhagan; Petroccia, Roberto; Conti, Mauro; Alves, João (CMRE, 2019/06)
      Underwater Acoustic Networks (UANs) are widely used in various applications such as climate change monitoring, pollution control and tracking, tactical surveillance and offshore exploration. However, limited consideration ...

    • Supporting AUV localisation through next generation underwater acoustic networks: results from the field 

      Munafó, Andrea; Furfaro, Thomas C.; Ferri, Gabriele; Alves, João (CMRE, 2017/11)
      This work describes how the localisation of autonomous underwater vehicles can be supported through net-worked acoustic communication. The localisation approach in-cludes timing information within acoustic messages to ...

    • Toward the development of secure underwater acoustic networks 

      Lal, Chhagan; Petroccia, Roberto; Conti, Mauro; Alves, João (CMRE, 2019/05)
      Underwater acoustic networks (UANs) have been recognized as an enabling technology for various applications in the maritime domain. The wireless nature of the acoustic medium makes UANs vulnerable to various malicious ...

    • Underwater communications research and development at CMRE 

      Alves, João; LePage, Kevin D.; Guerrini, Piero; Potter, John Robert; Zappa, Giovanni; Munafò, Andrea; Furfaro, Thomas C.; Vermeij, Arjan (CMRE, 2019/06)
      A key to developing autonomous maritime systems for NATO is communication among data gathering platforms below and above the water. However, unlike the mature technologies that are used for terrestrial networks, underwater ...
