After describing each technology, the authors relay their pros and cons, as it is essential to learn the underlying mechanism, advancements, and limitations of these techniques. Therefore, this book provides basics fundamentals of the three technologies, their advantages and disadvantages, and their applications. The authors also introduce research trends, pointing readers in the direction of research in the field of underwater wireless communication. The book is an essential textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in the field of underwater communications. The book is also useful as a reference to undergraduate engineering students, science students, and practicing engineers. The book includes end-of-chapter questions and numerical problems. Combines underwater wireless communication technologies such as acoustic communication, optical communication, and magneto-inductive wireless communication; Covers topics in a manner that a reader with little to no knowledge of the field can understand its primary underlying mechanisms; Includes end-of-chapter questions and numerical problems UR - https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-86649-5 ER -
