報告題目：Time reversal acoustic communication in the ocean

The global marine ecosystem is undergoing significant changes due to human activities and natural processes. These changes call for enhanced capabilities to sample and communicate in the oceans. With this background, underwater acoustic communication has attracted much attention across multiple disciplines, as a means to access oceanographic data in real-time and to support navigation of underwater vehicles. In this talk, I advocate an interdisciplinary approach to address the communication research in the ocean. To serve this goal, I will summarize my research results in channel simulations, receiver design, and receive performance in the dynamic ocean environment. Time reversal methods are often the employed techniques in the research activities. I will also present some of my recent acoustic communication research efforts beyond time reversal processing and physical layer design.
