Third Underwater Communicatios and Networking Conference (UComms 2016)

August30 - September 1, 2016

Italy

Call For Papers

The 2016 edition of the UComms conference follows on from the previous two meetings held in 2012 and 2014. The conference series is focussed on working towards an adequate physics-based understanding of the propagation of communication signals underwater and the performance of necessary higher-level protocols with the objective of supporting the intelligent choice of standards, as a foundation for interoperability. 

The conference is open to scientists and engineers involved in research, coding, protocols and performance estimation, manufacturing and those involved in the use and regulation of underwater communication systems, with the intention to be as inclusive as possible for all stakeholders in underwater communications networking. This is an important feature for a meeting intended to catalyse global consensus. 

Topics

- Channel physics and Ocean dynamics 
- Fading statistics in space, time, and frequency 
- Modelling, simulation, emulation & playback of communications channels
