Software-Defined Underwater Acoustic Modems Historical Review and the NILUS Approach

Flexible/adaptive acoustic modems that are reprogrammable/reconfigurable at all layers of the communication stack, either by a user or by means of autonomous decisions, are considered as an important enabler for interoperability and cognitive networking in the underwater domain. In this paper, we review the existing literature on software...

Software-defined open-architecture modems: Historical review and the NILUS approach

Flexible/adaptive modems that are reprogramma-ble/reconfigurable at all layers of the communication stack, either by a user or by means of autonomous decisions, are considered as an important enabler for interoperability and cognitive networking in the underwater domain. This paper reviews existing literature on software-defined open...
